Holding on to Hope: A Pathway through Suffering to the Heart of God
Publisher's Description
A healing book for those in the wake of life’s devastating storms.
We can never plan for the unexpected turns of this life that sometimes lead to great personal suffering. Sometimes that suffering can overshadow everything and threaten to pull us under. Nancy Guthrie knows what it is to be plunged into life’s abyss. Framing her own story of staggering loss and soaring hope with the biblical story of Job, she takes you by the hand and guides you on a pathway through pain—straight to the heart of God. Holding On to Hope offers an uplifting perspective, not only for those experiencing monumental loss, but for anyone going through difficulty and failure. (Includes an 8-week study on the book of Job for readers who want to dig deeper into what the Bible says about dealing with suffering and grief.)
Please Note: Sample PDF goes to the old version, which is substantially the same. Only presentation has been changed in new edition.

“You hold in your hand a treasure that was mined in a dark and frightening place. With transparent honesty, Nancy unwraps the joys and sorrows of her life. This is a book about life and our God, who holds us in all the moments of this life.”
Sheila Walsh
keynote speaker with WOMEN OF FAITH
“Only God could orchestrate such events. And only God could give the Guthrie family the faith and courage to live them. May He use this story to strengthen us all.”
Max Lucado
best-selling author, Traveling Light
“It's rare to find a book that combines insight, sensitivity, practicality and hope . . . this one does.”
H. Norman Wright
author and counselor
“Nancy Guthrie's book offers hurting people companionship as well as encouragement to pursue God in the midst of their suffering. Pastors can recommend it with confidence that it will make a difference.”
Dr. Ed Young
Pastor, Second Baptist Church, Houston
“Few people have lived-and continue to live-as deep a firsthand experience of pain and loss as Nancy Guthrie. For that reason alone her Christian reading of the story of Job should lay special claim on readers themselves undergoing suffering. But there are other inducements: the clarity, grit, and honesty with which Nancy explains how she has maintained hope a deepened faith where most would find only heartbreak.”
David Van Biema
TIME magazine
“Holding On to Hope reads easy, runs deep, and enriches the heart! If you are stymied about God's goodness amidst life's heartaches, then this book's for you.”
Joni Earekson Tada
Joni and Friends
“In a world where so much attention has been focused on a Christian message of health, wealth, and prosperity, Holding On to Hope is like a beacon of Light, drawing the reader to God and God alone.”
Anne Graham Lotz
Best-selling author and speaker, from the foreword to Holding On to Hope
