Unmapped Darkness: Finding God's Path Through Suffering

Rate this book
Based on the Theology of Suffering course Dr. Finch teaches at Moody Bible Institute, this examination of the reality of evil and suffering in the world provides a framework to understand it, along with a pathway to cope with it. The author examines the reality of and causes of suffering, then points readers to the light of the Trinity, the Cross, God's point of view, and finally, to how a person experiences suffering. Suffering points to the mystery of life itself. It does something to a person, it reduces their tolerance of superficiality, writes Finch.

Grappling logically with feelings often seems like an impossibility. This book is a very helpful discussion of biblically informed grief. We tend to cast a false dichotomy between facts and feelings, forgetting that both are necessary for a proper perception of God.
Finch points out that to know God we must experience Him. However, we do not know God only by experiencing Him.
