Bestselling author and pastor, Dr. Tony Evans understands life’s hardships firsthand. In a span of less than two years, he lost his brother, sister, brother-in-law, two nieces, father, and wife. At the same time, both of his daughters received cancer diagnoses. In the wake of all this pain, Dr. Evans had to put into practice, at the deepest levels, the truths he has preached about God for more than forty years.

God’s Word doesn’t promise us a life free from pain and trouble.

It promises us something else — Someone else. Someone who will walk with us through all of life’s trials and troubles.
