Endorsements<\/h2>\n

‘A short but powerful little book that does exactly what it claims\u2014it offers comfort to those who are sick and suffering…I went through this book with pencil and highlighter in-hand and relished every page. There is so much I want to go back to and to reflect on further. But even with a single, brisk read, it spoke deeply and brought great comfort. The history of Christianity holds many treasures, and I\u2019m grateful to Banner of Truth for finding and sharing one in A Book of Comfort for Those in Sickness<\/em>. It\u2019s a book I\u2019d recommend to each and every Christian. Buy one for yourself and buy one to pass to someone else. You\u2019ll benefit and they\u2019ll be blessed.’ — TIM CHALLIES<\/p>\n

Book Description<\/h2>\n

Suffering need not be a dark experience…<\/p>\n

While illness brings time to think, the natural tendency of our thoughts may not be comforting.<\/p>\n

Sickness may end activities we once enjoyed; it will make us dependent upon others; and feelings of pain, or of uselessness, or of anxiety about the future, may be very real. To those who are in sickness the author does not underestimate the strength of those hindrances to comfort.<\/p>\n

Far from offering superficial advice, P. B. Power’s position in A Book of Comfort for Those in Sickness<\/em> is that no comfort is obtainable unless there be, first, true knowledge of ourselves and, second, right knowledge of God.<\/p>\n

His main aim is to state what this knowledge needs to be, and to show how with faith in God\u2019s character and presence, suffering need not be a dark experience.<\/p>\n
