Becoming a first-time care giver to my father, prompted me to purchase this book. It was recommended to me by one of the first nurses who cared for my father after discovering a spinal cord disease. I was filled with many questions as to the intense suffering and life changing afflictions that were consuming such a kind, gentle, and humble man. This book is incredible! I highly recommend it to anyone facing ANY type of brokeness in their life. It has changed my perspective and given me new insights for loving my dad through his trial and not blaming God or growing bitterness or anger. It has changed my life, forever.
When one writes or speaks a subject from personal experience, and does it in such a way that it touches and encourages others who are walking the same path, it is a true blessing. In The Blessings of Brokenness, Dr. Stanley given the reader such a gift. If you know of someone struggling through a faith crisis or a trial that shows no end, I would highly recommend this book as a way of bringing light and balance to the heart.

It helps us understand God’s purpose for the hurts and hard times we face. It answers the common question why do bad things happen to good people. The trouble is none of us our good. We are all sinners and need a Savior. We must be broken of our self centered ways so we can become more like Christ.
