Description
Praying through Pain is a compassionate and practical guide for those who find prayer difficult in times of suffering. Written by award-winning author and spiritual director Barbara Lee, the book speaks directly to the experience of feeling angry, confused, numb, or unable to find words before God.
Rather than offering easy answers or spiritual platitudes, the book provides gentle guidance for honest communication with God when life feels overwhelming. Drawing on relatable Scripture stories of pain and the principles of St Ignatius of Loyola’s spirituality, Barbara Lee shows how prayer can remain real and sustaining even when it is raw and unfinished.
The book includes short reflections, Ignatian insights, and simple mini-prayers, words, and phrases that can be used when forming full prayers feels impossible. Readers are encouraged to engage with the book in a way that suits their personal journey—reading selectively, sitting with Scripture, or simply bringing their emotions honestly before God.
A reassuring companion for those walking through suffering, reminding readers that God remains present and attentive, even in silence.
