Suffering can be perplexing. God’s people—and even Jesus himself—have often asked the “Why?” question when facing suffering.

Whether we remain stuck or move forward is determined in large part by our resilience. Concise and compassionate, Becoming Resilient takes our most common question when tragedy strikes—why?—and replaces it with the healthier, more productive question, what next?
