About this ebook

Follow God's process for growth and find hope in life's darkest moments with Bishop T.D. Jakes's uplifting stories and advice from his own faith journey.

In this insightful book, #1 New York Times bestselling author T.D. Jakes wrestles with age-old questions: Why do the righteous suffer? Where is God in all the injustice?

Bishop Jakes tells crushing personal stories from his own journey -- the painful experience of learning his young teenage daughter was pregnant, the agony of watching his mother succumb to Alzheimer's, and the shock and helplessness he felt when his son had a heart attack.

Bishop Jakes wants to show you how God uses difficult, crushing experiences to prepare you for unexpected blessings. If you are faithful through suffering, you will be surprised by God's joy, comforted by His peace, and fulfilled with His purpose. Crushing will inspire you to have hope, even in your most difficult moments. If you trust in God and lean on Him during setbacks, He will lead you through.

Ratings and reviews

I'm indulging and always looking to TD Jake's for spiritual food , always exceeds my expectations. I came prepared for dinner, but this all you can eat buffet, with his own personal happenings, heartaches, losses,tradgies, sadness,victories, how he gets through and still feeds his flock though he is going through his own storm. Jake's brings crushing to a place that is so personal in his life and ours. It is for us you do what you do, ÿour realness and genuine love for God is why you give us what you have, because it was given to you from God.

Very encouraging. Steps on my toes quite often. Mr. Jakes answered questions I've had for quite awhile. Due to NOT having someone I could totally trust with these concerns, this book truly answered them all. Thanks😇

I absolutely recommend this book. I had a hard time in the beginning of the book, it rubbed my nerves raw, and I knew it was because God was trying to work in me on something. I've gone through this irritation before so I knew what it was, but once I accepted the process and allowed Abba Father to do what only be can do; I couldn't put it down. There were a couple of things I didn't see through Bishop's eyes, like the wedding and wine, but that's where you pray and seek the Lord. I will be reading this again because it is full of, what I call, God nuggets! I bought the hard cover book but had to share my experience.
