Rev. Eric Hernández Lopez has penned a helpful spiritual growth and discipleship resource. The book is a reflection on Jesus's life and suffering through the Gospel of Mark. A native of Puerto Rico, which has had its share of suffering recently in the aftermath of Hurricane Maria, collapse of its electrical grid and a series of earthquakes, Rev. Hernandez challenges readers to reflect on how we can grow spiritually through life's suffering. Divided into ten chapters, the book is appropriate for a small groups and individual Bible study or even a preaching series. Heavily based on Scripture, this resource refers to great spiritual leaders such as Martin Luther, John Wesley, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Martin Luther King, Jr., and Mother Teresa. Each chapter concludes with the Lectio Divina spiritual discipline, a covenantal prayer, and discussion questions. The book is written for people who is in search of spiritual growth or trying to make sense of the suffering that is inevitable in the human experience.
