Counseling with Suffering People

Journal of Biblical Counseling 21:2

In this article, John Piper argues that suffering is a universal experience, designed by God for His glory, but endangering every Christian’s faith. Piper maintains that coming to Christ means more suffering, not less, in this world. He concludes that our conversations must help us become satisfied in God while suffering and that the counselor’s own experience shapes the conversation.
