When God Says No
| |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
eBook Summary: In many situations and throughout the ages, when people have petitioned God for the relief of their suffering, or the suffering of others, God has said no. This book attempts to provide simple and practical pastoral insights for the ordinary person who comes to listen to the Word of God in Church. Using the death of his own brother aged twenty-five from cancer, Father Lanahan offers thoughts on why God allows suffering, the meaning of prayer, the mystery of the universe, the death and resurrection of Jesus, the death of a loved one, and the promise of salvation. “There are no easy answers in Dan Lanahan’s moving book;but living the questions with him, the reader experiences the unconditional love of God no matter what suffering or refusals come our way. His own brother ’s death from cancer is the template for all the deep questions and hard answers Fr. Lanahan explores. We feel with him, we try, like him, to believe that God’s love never fails, even when God ’s answer is no.” —Murray Bodo, author, "The Way of St. Francis Father" Daniel Lanahan, O. F. M. is member of the Franciscan Ministry of the Word team who has taught in schools, colleges, and parishes all over the United States. He lives in Ho-Ho-Kus, New Jersey. |
