Many writers seem to get bogged down with the why question - why does God allow suffering? Rob Bell intentionally side-steps this age old question to ask it from a different direction - what comes next?
"Many of the most significant moments in our lives come not because it all went right but because it all fell apart. Suffering does that. It hurts, but it also creates". - Rob Bell, from Drops Like Stars.
This book is an investigation into the transformative power of pain, the emergence of creativity from suffering, and the driving human nature that says there is art in the agony.
After Rob Bell's controversial book 'Love Wins', he has stepped down from leading Mars Hill Church to focus more on touring, writing and speaking. He seeks to communicate to bigger, broader audiences than ever before. Other best-selling Rob Bell titles include 'Sex God', 'Velvet Elvis' and 'Jesus Wants to Save Christians'.
