Finding Hope When it Hurts
Watch Dawson McAllister’s powerful video hereas an introduction to this study!C. S. Lewis once said “God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our conscience, but shouts in our pains: it is His megaphone to rouse a deaf world.” Lewis was not unacquainted with suffering in his own life. His book A Grief Observed Lewis pours out his heart after the death of his wife, Joy Gresham.
Another man who is acquainted with grief, radio host and author Dawson McAllister. He speaks to an average of half a million listeners per week on his radio show, but in this video he reflects poignantly about his son’s accident. Like Lewis, he is a man who is not a fan of cliches and easy answers, but desires to grapple honestly with the truth. In dealing with times of suffering, “Either you’ll become better, or you’ll become bitter,” he says, “but you won’t be the same again.”
