Good News at Rock Bottom

Finding God When the Pain Goes Deep and Hope Seems Lost

By: Ray Ortlund

Narrated by: Ray Ortlund

Meeting the Man of Sorrows Where We Need Him Most

We all long for a life worth living. So when we receive news of a frightening diagnosis, suffer heartbreaking loss in our family life, or get trapped in a cycle of our own sin, we might wonder about God. Where is he when we need him most? With wisdom from Isaiah 57:15, Good News at Rock Bottom helps listeners discover that Jesus is hard to find in the comfortable lives we prefer. Instead, he meets us at rock bottom—where he is waiting for us with open arms.

With grace and empathy, author Ray Ortlund opens a door for listeners to go deeper with God and get closer to faithful friends when life is hard to bear. You will discover that, at rock bottom, Jesus is more satisfying than any comfortable life without him.

• Empathetic: Author Ray Ortlund meets listeners with honesty and helps them fall into the arms of Christ amid the painful seasons of life
• Appeals to Sufferers: Will resonate with anyone who has experienced betrayal, failure, loneliness, or wondered if God even cares
• Ideal for Individual or Small-Group Use: Questions at the end of each chapter spur discussion with friends and reflection in one's own heart
