N2  - Through a panoramic overview of what the Bible says about suffering, the authors make clear who God is, why he permits so much heartache and pain, and how it is we can trust him. With both a practical edge and heartfelt warmth. When God Weeps offers dependence on His love and mercy in spite of our doubts, fears, longings and questions
