Few people have lived —and continue to live —as deep a firsthand experience of pain and loss as Nancy Guthrie. For that reason alone her Christian reading of the story of Job should lay special claim on readers themselves undergoing suffering. But there are other inducements: the clarity, grit, and honesty with which Guthrie explains how she has maintained hope and deepened faith where most would find only heartbreak.

Only God could orchestrate such events. And only God could give the Guthrie family the faith and courage to live them. May He use this story to strengthen us all.
MAX LUCADO
Nancy Guthrie’s faith shines through some of the darkest clouds of human pain. This book and her story will touch your emotions and inspire your mind in an unforgettable way. Seldom will you read anything with such candor and insight, probing one of life’s toughest questions: How can grief be a friend along life’s journey?
RAVI ZACHARIAS
Nancy Guthrie’s book offers hurting people companionship as well as encouragement to pursue God in the midst of their suffering. Pastors can recommend it with confidence that it will make a difference.
DR. ED YOUNG
Pastor of Second Baptist Church, Houston
If you want someone to know they are not alone in their pain and help them understand where God is in the midst of their pain, Holding On to Hope is the best resource available. While the world questions why God allows loss and pain, Nancy shows us how to face it. Read this book, recommend this book, and hope that just a portion of her courage and faith rub off on you.
