Everyone suffers. Almost no one knows what to do with it.
When pain comes, most of us ask why it is happening. The answer rarely arrives, and even when it does, it does not take the pain away. There is a better question, and this one has an answer: what do we do with our suffering now that it is here?
Our culture of comfort doesn't have an answer, but the Church has had one for two thousand years. It is called redemptive suffering, and most of us were never taught it.
In Redemptive Suffering in an Age of Comfort, Jeff Krohn draws on Scripture, the witness of the saints, and the teaching of Pope St. John Paul II, especially his apostolic letter Salvifici Doloris, to offer a clear and compassionate guide to suffering well. He writes not as a scholar but as a witness. At forty-eight he was diagnosed with cancer, and in the years that followed he learned what it means to offer up pain and unite it to Christ.
This book makes no promise to lift your cross or explain it away. It offers no easy answers and no sentimental comfort. What it offers instead is a choice: to carry your pain alone, or to unite it to Christ and let it become love and intercession for others.
Inside this book:
For anyone walking through illness, grief, loss, depression, or the long quiet exhaustion of ordinary life, this book shows how even the hardest parts of life, when united to Christ, can draw us into deeper communion with Him and let our lives share in His saving work for the world.
Jesus never said suffering would be easy. He said it would be worth it.

Jeff Krohn is the author of "Offer It Up" and a speaker on redemptive suffering whose talks have drawn people at parish after parish to share their own stories of pain and hope. A devoted husband, father of four, and steadfast friend, he writes as a witness rather than a scholar, a Catholic layman who learned what he knows about suffering not in a classroom but in a hospital bed, a chemotherapy chair, and an adoration chapel. Diagnosed with cancer at forty-eight, Jeff drew strength from his faith and the people around him, and he now uses that experience to encourage others carrying crosses of their own. This book grew out of that journey and out of his desire to share the hope his faith has given him. Jeff holds a degree in chemical engineering and an MBA, and works as an engineering manager. When he is not working, he flies as a licensed commercial pilot. He lives in the Midwest, where his greatest joy is found not in his many interests but in his faith, his family, and his friends.
