The God of All Comfort
Hannah Whitall Smith
Read by LibriVox Volunteers
This book is written to Christians who profess to believe the Bible as God's revelation, but whose "lives are filled with discomfort and unrest." Smith aims to show that the Bible's claim that God is the "the God of all comfort" is not an over-advertisement or misunderstanding, but that it is possible to avail ourselves of the doubts and heavy anxieties that plague so many Christians.
By explaining God's part and man's part, Smith aims to show her readers that it is possible to overcome feelings of defeat and despair and find rest and peace in Christ. Abundant life and genuine enduring joy are available to all believers - even you. Deep and lasting peace, beyond all Earthly circumstances, is possible.

Wonderful! A true blessing! Much thanks! Will certainly play again! Very needed and sure to be a "comfort " to all! Can't get the ratings to work well anymore. Truly a five star!
Truly a comfort

I've listened repeatedly to every chapter in this book during times of needing comfort. God has met my need each time. I have many favorite chapters but my absolute most favorite is "God is enough."
