"St. John Chrysostom served as a Christian priest in ancient Antioch. In 398 he became the Archbishop of Constantinople, and subsequently he died in exile in 407. During his years in Antioch, he received a request for help and guidance from a monk named Stagirius, who was suffering from both physical and mental ailments. This book is St. John Chrysostom's response to Stagirius. The saint affirms the goodness of God's providence and God's constant care for human beings, even in the face of terrible tragedies and suffering. A large part of this book consists of the interpretation and application of Biblical stories of the sufferings experienced by God's faithful servants, such as Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, David, and Paul"-- Suffering Religious aspects Christianity Early works to 1800.
