Do you look around you and see nothing but trouble?
Or are you experiencing firsthand a time of suffering?
Do you wonder how any good can come out of the world you live in?

As Howard Peskett guides you through these studies on Isaiah, you'll dig deep into the prophet's revolutionary message of repentance, forgiveness and hope. And you'll find comfort for coping with your own troubled times.
