A 6-Week Study on Walking Through Suffering

Download the free Week One Preview

Suffering can strike out of nowhere, leaving us reeling in a sea of emotions, shock, and even despair. It has a way of challenging everything we knew about God and his goodness. But in your darkest moments of pain and confusion, you are not alone—you never are.

Songs for the Suffering is a 6-week study in which Julia Allspaw leads readers through the scary emotions that come with profound suffering—even the emotions we don’t want to admit. This study is a safe place to land for women who find themselves questioning the goodness of God—or even his existence. Julia mines the depth of the Scriptures to offer up real hope when “everything happens for a reason” just doesn’t cut it. While the Bible may feel like the last place you want to bring your pain, Songs for the Suffering seeks to show us just how much of a safe haven the Word of God is for those struggling in seasons of darkness.

Each week includes Scripture reading, guided questions, application points and moments of reflection to delve into the heart of suffering, ask the hard questions, and lean into the Man of Sorrows himself, knowing he is already acquainted with our grief.

This was gifted to me in 2023 during a long year of suffering. I've now been through it almost three times. It is rich, comforting, and easy to pick up and slowly work through or just read each day. When you are grieving, sometimes a hefty Bible study feels daunting, but I love that this is rooted in truth and connects me to God + Scripture every day.

I’m only on week 3, but am absolutely in love. As a 19 year old learning to navigate the world without parents this book as already hit very hard and is helping to navigate my mourning process of losing my mom to cancer. Not only that, but, my dad has been an absent parent my entire life. I truly believe this study has fixed my mindset on the Lord through my trials. I highly recommend!!

Perfect

I got this as a gift for my grandma. We just lost my grandfather and I wanted to gift her with something that would help her in her grief. She really enjoyed it and found it really thought provoking and meaningful. I’m so grateful that Hosanna Revival has such beautiful offerings and was able to help me help my family through this time. Thank you, dearly. 🙏

Great design

When I received it I was so happy just by the design of it and once I began using it I loved the intentionality of giving pages to respond to the questions asked and reflect on what was written. It’s my first Hosanna Revival devotional and I am loving it so far.

Grief of all Shapes & Sizes

I had lost my mom unexpectedly. On Christmas Day. I felt like I was on an island, all alone in my grief. When I was approached about this study, I said no, it’s too soon, but the Lord told me I needed it now. I’m so glad I listened. This study will help you shift your grief…not taking it away completely, but making it manageable…helping you realize you ARE NOT alone…showing you the way your grief can exist and yet you can still function and have normal days. I was able to unpack my mom’s overnight bag from hospice while reading this book…something I had hidden away in a closet and wasn’t sure I’d ever be able to do. I encourage you to purchase this book and work through all of the exercises. I’ve purchased multiple more copies to share with grieving friends and co-workers.

Truth to face our suffering

"Counteracting our discouragement with truth leads us to find hope, purpose, and beauty where Christ has placed us, even if it is in the darkness."

Being in the mental health field has shown me that grief and suffering are more complex than we ever imagined. There is so much loss, evil, darkness, and suffering right here usually right next to us. The Christian world is full of one sentence "encouragements" that are supposedly backed by scripture. But, in fact, suffering is guaranteed and may not end this side of heaven.

This devotional does not sugarcoat the pain we feel. It is an honest look at what happens when the miracle does not come.

As followers of Christ we have a Savior that has felt suffering and is perfect comfort and perfect consolation. "Songs for the Suffering" does a good job at holding suffering and true joy in tension and walking the path toward how to see joy in such pain.

Slapping an encouraging Christian phrase onto such pain isn't helpful and can be damaging. I think we need more resources about suffering with Christ rather than pushing our pain aside to portray a shiny, Christian life.

Just what I needed

I have been dealing with incredible sorrow lately. I’ve felt so alone, and I’ve never been this hurt in my life. I’ve turned to God more in the past few weeks than I have in a long time, and I’m ashamed to admit that. However, God’s never left me. I got this devotional and it was a wonderful reminder that even in the midst of sorrow, He is always there. I completed a whole week’s worth in one sitting because I couldn’t get enough of this book. It’s wonderful and just what I needed because i believe it was God giving me the incentive to purchase this at the time I needed it the most. He is always with me, and he is always good.
