What Happens to Good People When Bad Things Happen

by Robert A. Schuller

This hope-giving book helps readers understand that God's blessings are available in the present and that they can take hold of them. Different chapters view God's blessing, even when life hurts, when forgiveness is needed, when you reach out to others, when you need refuge, and when you don't feel the joy of His presence.

This book is clearly not a self-help book and I made a mistake buying it with that thought in mind. This book is way too religious which is not necessarily a bad thing but it's just not for me. I do think this book does more good than bad by giving religious people something to latch onto and if they get peace from it all the power to them. Just remember this is A RELIGIOUS BOOK not a self-help or development book. That out of the way, the book was okay. The messages about God were nice. I give it 2/5 stars.

One of the best books that remind us of God’s love and blessings. We tend to forget or get drifted away by life’s ups and downs that we lose trust and faith that God is working. This book is a perfect read for everyone especially those going through a tough time in life, God blesses us every day even when we can not see or feel or understand.May we live to trust and rely on the Lord for He got us!A must read!

Finished reading 'What Happens To Good People When Bad Things Happen' by Robert A. Schuller.

It is not easy to understand or accept, but the most wonderful blessings of life can be experienced during the worst of times. This book will help you cherish the blessings in your life even as you navigate through tough times. Robert helps you understand that God is blessing you right now, and you can find peace right in the middle of your turmoil.

Last but not the least, nothing is going to happen today or in the future that you and God together can't handle.
