The Ministry of Affliction

by B. R. Hicks

Overview

Failure to understand why Christians experience pain, suffering, and affliction causes us to become confused. Hence, in our confusion and misunderstanding, we accuse God unjustly, even though we know that He is just and righteous.

Reading this book will help us to understand more about God’s purpose in our afflictions, and to feel His consolations in the midst of our afflictions. By keeping our eyes upon the LORD, we will find spiritual help and growth in the midst of life’s everyday disappointments.

About the Author

Rev. Bernice R. Hicks directs a worldwide ministry, whose headquarters are located located in Jeffersonville, Indiana, USA. Affiliated churches are located in twenty-seven states and sixty-six foreign countries. The organization supports orphanages in Mexico and broadcasts into all major areas of the world via radio and the Internet.

Before the Christian world commonly accepted women ministers, Rev. Hicks felt called to preach, a call she resisted because in her day, women were not supposed to be leaders. She persevered past many obstacles to share a love for studying the Bible.

Six decades of Rev. Hicks' life have been spent studying the Bible and Hebrew. A prolific writer, she has more than 100 books in print, several of which have been translated into foreign languages.

Her works contain brilliant insights into Scripture that other Biblical scholars miss. Her emphasis is on a personal journey of growth toward spiritual enlightenment, as one develops a personal relationship with Christ that transforms the inner self to conform to Christ's nature.

The church in Jeffersonville has 1,000 members, and in addition to a sanctuary seating 2,800 people, there are several more buildings, including a modern building for international and national offices, a facility for recording and publishing, a prayer chapel, a fellowship hall, educational buildings and a gymnasium. Twice a year, the international conventions that are held in Jeffersonville draw over 2,000 attendees.
