Seeing the Good in It, by Phil Zielke

Today, Roberta talks to Phil Zielke about his new book Seeing the Good In It, available from Oasis Audio publishers.WHERE IS HOPE FOUND IN TIMES OF DEEP SUFFERING?   At the age of twenty-two, Phil Z was diagnosed with stage 4 Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. Instead of starting his new career as a fourth-grade teacher and getting engaged to the love of his life, he experienced uncertainty and despair in the face of tests, surgeries, appointments, medications, and a myriad of devastating symptoms caused by both cancer and treatment.   In your darkest times, who is there for you? What is your source of strength and peace? What promises can you cling to that actually bring hope? These are the questions Phil wrestled with as he learned that his determination and self-confidence were no longer enough. This wrestling led him to a greater intimacy with God and a desire to help others in similar situations. This is how Phil’s Friends—a ministry that sends cards and care packages to those with cancer—was born.   With reflection questions at the end of each chapter, Phil encourages readers to see God’s hand in the story of their lives and discover the good in even life’s most difficult circumstances.Discover the latest Christian books and meet the authors behind them on Author's Corner, where Roberta Foster explores new releases in faith-based publishing.
