In The Furnace of Affliction, author Horace Williams Jr. shares his life before his massive stroke and how God used that suffering and affliction to get his attention. While God tends to speak in a still, soft voice, He knows how to drop a ton of bricks on our heads if we don’t listen. God has a purpose in pain, and Horace graciously shares his story of how God has used - and is still using - pain to change him and bring honor and glory to God. Horace writes with compassion and grace, and most importantly he writes to instill hope. He seeks to draw his readers into the peace and comfort that our Father has given him, and readers will feel uplifted as a result of reading his words.
