As a small-town rabbi he counseled other people through pain and grief. But not until he learned that his three-year-old son  Aaron  would die in his early teens of a rare disease did he confront one of lifes most difficult questions: Where do we find the resources to cope when tragedy strikes?  \"I knew that one day I would write this book \" says Rabbi Kushner. \"I would write it out of my own need to put into words some of the most important things I have come to believe and know. And I would write it to help other people who might one day find themselves in a similar predicament. I am fundamentally a religious man who has been hurt by life  and I wanted to write a book that could be given to the person who has been hurt by life  and who knows in his heart that if there is justice in the world  he deserved better. . . . If you are such a person  if you want to believe in Gods goodness and fairness but find it hard because of the things that have happened to you and to people you care about  and if this book helps you do that  then I will have succeeded in distilling some blessing out of Aarons pain and tears.\"  Since its original publication in 1981  When Bad Things Happen to Good People has brought solace and hope to millions. In his new preface to this anniversary edition  Rabbi Kushner relates the heartwarming responses he has received over the last two decades from people who have found inspiration and comfort within these pages.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45951550128181,"sku":"ByrdShop_0805241930","price":63.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780805241938.jpg?v=1788113166","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/when-bad-things-happen-to-good-people-twentieth-anniversary-edition-with-a-new-preface-by-the-author-9780805241938","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
