Pain & Raw Faith – Cliff Schrauger on SBE

Erik Guzman June 12th, 2009

Joshua, David, Stephen and TimothyCliff Schrauger is a man with a raw faith in the face of unimaginable grief. The loss of his job and the foreclosure on his house are only the beginning of his story. Then an explosion in Iraq on Father's Day and a tragic car wreck in Michigan changed Cliff and his family forever.

Cliff was at one time a staff pastor to me as a missionary. He called me from the hospital after he got the call from the officer. My children were at the party with Stephen when he found out. It was unbelievable to walk through it with them. I was a pallbearer for Josh. The first thing that came to mind after Cliff was called was "Job." Horrible does not describe what their suffering was like. I doubt I could have done it if I was in his shoes.
