A New Normal (MiniBook) is a 24-page minibook by Rebecca Olson that offers practical and biblical guidance for navigating deep suffering. Edited by Joni and Friends and published by New Growth Press, this 4.25 x 7.5 inch paperback was released.
Whether a loved one has walked out, a car crash has left you disabled, you or a family member have received a serious medical diagnosis, or you have recently returned from a funeral, Rebecca Olson helps you take steps from surviving to thriving. Olson walks readers through the questions they may ask of themselves and God during long-term trials and devastating loss, and she invites readers to see how heartache, illness, and sorrow can become a platform for experiencing the grace of God in new ways.
Olson encourages readers not to walk the path of pain alone but to lean into Christian community and share the comfort the Lord provides. Suffering is presented as an invitation to know the heart of Jesus and to hope in the restoration the Lord promises to his children.
