Christians are invited to follow Jesus Christ, but rarely are they taught that the invitation includes suffering. Scripture teaches Christians why we suffer and how to endure that suffering. Yet often we are caught in the midst of suffering asking, Why is this happening? Or when a friend or family member is suffering, we ask, How can I help them? In Walking Straight When Life Goes Sideways, Christopher L. Scott draws from his pastoral experience and from several sections of 1 Peter to help Christians endure their suffering and serve others through their suffering.
