About the book
Everyone knows someone who is afflicted by illness, disability, sadness, or the loss of a loved one.
People who love the suffering frequently struggle in their own unique ways. They usually suffer in silence, with little help from others. Dave Furman shares insight into the support, encouragement, and knowledge that individuals need while assisting others, writing from the unusual perspective of someone who requires extra aid on a regular basis. Furman addresses the heart and ministry of people who are called to serve others by drawing on his own life experiences, biblical references, and wisdom from Christians throughout history. This book is deeply personal and pastoral, pointing readers to the strength that only God can provide as they love those who are hurting. Gloria Furman, the author's wife, wrote the afterword.
