In this eloquent account of her current struggle with physical pain, Joni Eareckson Tada offers her perspective on divine healing, God’s purposes, and what it means to live with joy. Over four decades ago, a diving accident left Joni a quadriplegic. Today, she faces a new battle: unrelenting pain. The ongoing urgency of this season in her life has caused Joni to return to foundational questions about suffering and God’s will. A Place of Healing is not an ivory tower treatise on suffering. Its an intimate look into the life of a mature woman of God. Whether readers are enduring physical pain, financial loss, or relational grief, Joni invites them to process their suffering with her. Together, they will navigate the distance between God’s magnificent yes and heartbreaking no and find new hope for thriving in between.

“Sometimes a book read by the author can be a hit-or-miss listening
experience. Even though an author may know how she meant something to be
heard, she herself may not know how to deliver it that way. But this is
not the case with Joni Eareckson Tada. She has a bright, clear, direct,
and often-cheerful way of speaking that is always appropriate to the
context. Tada, a quadriplegic, at one point calls her wheelchair ‘a
place of healing.’ She explains this extraordinary statement with a
conviction that says: This is what faith sounds like. Her confident way
of expressing herself draws the listener to the Lord she loves.”
