Gleams of Light: God’s Response to Suffering and Evil

About Gleams of Light: God’s Response to Suffering and Evil

Most of us have, at some stage, asked: “Why should this happen to me?” or “Why should that happen to someone I love?”

In Gleams of Light, Jesuit author Brian Grogan SJ explores how the Christian tradition responds to suffering and evil. He shows how divine light shines in the darkness of suffering, a darkness that cannot overcome it. The book offers comfort to those who are hurting and to those who want to comfort others.
