We have gathered top books on Christian Suffering for you to read. The Christian life is meant to involve suffering. “You will have trouble in this world,” Jesus said to His disciples. But don’t give up! “I have triumphed over the world” (John 16:33). When suffering seems overwhelming, Christians are sustained by this truth about overcoming. Life on this imperfect globe can be challenging, and Christians suffer for many of the same reasons as non-Christians. For some of the same reasons that Jesus suffered, Christians might also suffer (John 15:18–19). The world doesn’t want to hear that Jesus Christ is the one way to God, and believers stand for this unwavering truth (John 14:6).
All forms of suffering were absent from God’s original creation. According to Genesis 1:31, everything He made was “very good.” Because of Adam’s disobedience, sin polluted the world. As each of us adds our own bad choices, disobedience, and selfishness, sin continues to corrupt the world (Romans 3:23; 6:23; 8:19–23). Even when we have done nothing wrong, sin has repercussions; our sin damages others, and their sin damages us. Being a Christian does not shield us from the natural, transitory effects of sin or from the ugliness of the world.
