Between disappointments and helping the abused pregnant woman, Molly questions her own character, forgiveness, and trusting God with her dream.

Witnesses of Suffering

A 30 Day Devotional of Hope

by Jeremy Walden

Do you ever wonder where God is in your suffering?

Life brings pain we can’t always explain—grief, loss, betrayal, illness, disappointment. In those moments, we need stories of hope. The Bible is full of witnesses who endured the very same struggles we face today.

Witnesses of Suffering is a 30-day devotional that brings their stories to life through powerful first-person narratives, scripture readings, and heartfelt prayers. You’ll step into the shoes of Job’s friend, Bathsheba, Ruth, Paul, Peter, and many others, hearing their raw voices as they wrestle with sorrow, loss, and unanswered questions. And in their stories, you’ll discover the God who never abandons His people.

This devotional will help you:
✅ Find comfort in knowing you are not alone in your pain.
✅ Learn practical ways to endure suffering—through prayer, music, worship, community, and faith.
✅ See how God redeems even the darkest moments for His glory.
✅ Hold on to the promise of ultimate restoration and healing.

Whether you’re facing illness, grief, broken relationships, or deep disappointment, Witnesses of Suffering offers encouragement for today and hope for tomorrow.

Your suffering is real—but so is God’s presence. Walk with the witnesses of old and let their stories strengthen your faith as you persevere through your own trials.
