Synopsis

Andy Burrows has battled with cancer several times since his first diagnosis early in 2010. Along the way those battles prompted some deep thinking about the way his Christian faith speaks to issues of hardship, suffering and illness. In this book Andy tells of the emotional and physical roller coaster ride of his first three battles, involving two relapses, three lots of chemotherapy, antibody treatment and a stem cell transplant, interspersed with Christian reflections.

He covers such questions as: How does the Christian faith affect the way that we view hardship and suffering? Isn't the Christian hope too 'pie in the sky' to be of any comfort? Can cancer be a good thing? Shouldn't suffering lead us to hate God if he exists? Is God really in control of everything?

As he reflects on the issues thrown up by his cancer, Andy comes to the conclusion that our response to hardships and suffering are 'where the rubber hits the road', as his studies continually take him back to the truth, wisdom and comfort of the Bible's teaching on God's sovereignty and the eternal future hope that awaits God’s children through Christ’s work.
