The following pages are designed to facilitate group discussions about some of the feelings cancer brings. A diagnosis of cancer can leave a person and his family shaken spiritually. The world as we once understood it may no longer exist. Old explanations no longer seem to fit or to make sense. It seems as if everything is up for grabs.
Cancer presents new challenges to our faith.
We find ourselves asking frightening questions about God. We find ourselves unable to pray. We find ourselves seeking healing. We need to know that we are not alone with these experiences. We need to discover that it good to ask hard questions, that we can ask others to pray when we cannot and that we have been invited by God to ask for healing and help in times of need.
