Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Suffering is something every person encounters, yet it can leave us wondering where God is, what purpose our pain could possibly have, and whether anything good can come from what we endure.Nothing Wasted: A Catholic Journey Through Redemptive Suffering is a 33-day spiritual retreat designed to help readers explore the Catholic understanding of suffering, not as something to glorify or simply endure, but as something that can be united with the suffering of Jesus Christ and transformed by grace.Through daily Scripture, reflection, prayer, and simple spiritual practices, Michael T. Barrett gently leads readers through the mystery of redemptive suffering. Along the way, the retreat considers the Cross of Christ, the witness of Mary, the suffering of the Apostles and the Saints, the meaning behind the familiar Catholic phrase "Offer It Up," and the difficult but powerful act of placing our own burdens into the hands of God.Written for those who are suffering, those who have suffered, and those walking beside someone they love in pain, Nothing Wasted offers a compassionate invitation to discover that suffering does not have to be meaningless. When our wounds, losses, fears, disappointments, and daily crosses are united with Jesus, even the burdens we would never have chosen can become places of prayer, grace, love, and redemption.In Christ, even suffering can bear fruit.Nothing is wasted.
