Turning Hurts Into Halos

by Robert H. Schuller

This is Robert Schuller like you've never heard before. Though it echoes the extraordinary insightfulness and encouragement you have come to count on from Dr. Schuller, never before has he written a book so personal, so moving. This book is about adversity, tragedy, despair. But it's also about hope, joy, and eternal victory in Jesus. For the first time, he discusses many of the difficult events of his life. He provides positive examples to show readers how he got through them and how they can emerge victoriously also.

This book makes you try to learn from your hurt. Some of the hurts told in this book seem too hard to get over but the people that went through it used what happened to help others or to become stronger and reading this makes my faith stronger that God is helping us.

what i learned from this book : there's a reason for each disappointment or hurts.

A lot of good logic on dealing with the different hurts we experience in life and suggestions for addressing them and moving forward. It is true Schiller style with his cliches, some are helpful some sound almost trite. But overall it was a helpful review
