Beauty Beyond the Thorns: Discovering Gifts in Suffering

When we follow Jesus, God offers us gifts such as joy, hope, compassion, and mercy to help us not only endure our suffering but find meaning in it.

​

In Beauty Beyond the Thorns and its companion, Study Guide for Beauty Beyond the Thorns, Darci inspires and equips us to endure trials with meaningful insights she has gained during her physical and emotional suffering. Look inside for inspiration and to learn how to discover empowering gifts to assist you along your healing journey.

"I love the content of Beauty Beyond the Thorns—it’s a wonderful mix of intellectually stimulating information, theologically inspiring exegesis, personal stories, and incredible poetry.

I believe this book would be an extraordinary blessing to anyone who wants to walk with Jesus every day. I can only begin to imagine the impact it would have on someone who deals with chronic pain or significant tragedy."

"A journey through time, culture, pain, and the divine stories found within them all, Darci Joy Steiner's unique devotional is one to be savored slowly. Each chapter in Beauty Beyond the Thorns: Discovering Gifts in Suffering is filled with perspective that can only come from one who has walked out the reality of each title. You'll not find shallow platitudes; rather, you'll be deeply encouraged in your own journey of faith to see God's presence in rich and meaningful ways."

"Darci has an excellent and rare presence as an author. She is beautifully honest, humble, and powerful. Her beauty lies in the calmness of her tone while discussing earth-shattering revelations about God and suffering.

Truly, I wish I had had this book to read when I went through the last 5 years of my own life. Steiner's premise of the book is while she previously went through tragedy and pain, she realized good DID come from it. To now be suffering again, Darci is almost suffering with excitement for what God is trying to teach her. It's astounding."
