Jeff KrohnJeff Krohn is the author of "Offer It Up" and a speaker on redemptive suffering whose talks have drawn people at parish after parish to share their own stories of pain and hope. A devoted husband, father of four, and steadfast friend, he writes as a witness rather than a scholar, a Catholic layman who learned what he knows about suffering not in a classroom but in a hospital bed, a chemotherapy chair, and an adoration chapel. Diagnosed with cancer at forty-eight, Jeff drew strength from his faith and the people around him, and he now uses that experience to encourage others carrying crosses of their own. This book grew out of that journey and out of his desire to share the hope his faith has given him. Jeff holds a degree in chemical engineering and an MBA, and works as an engineering manager. When he is not working, he flies as a licensed commercial pilot. He lives in the Midwest, where his greatest joy is found not in his many interests but in his faith, his family, and his friends.
