Aus dem Klappentext

Things are pretty rough right now, eh? Y know, in days gone by, tough times were no big deal to the believer, because Christians used to be a tad bit pluckier back then. You re probably thinking, Where did they get their holy bulldog resiliency? Well, they actually read the Bible, believed it (bizarre, huh?), and understood from the balance of Scripture that bad times, as well as good, were promised by Jesus, Moses, and the boys. Therefore, when bad things happened, the believers from bygone days didn t wail like sirens, move home with mummy, and/or renounce their Christianity just because things momentarily were jacked up. No, they rolled with the pain and grew thereby. I know, pretty weird, right? That type of rock-in-a-hard-place Christian, generally speaking, in today s ecclesiastical milieu, is rarely seen on church pews. Yep, the Church has become a bunch of wussies, not a battalion of spiritual warriors. Christians nowadays put on climbing gear, crash helmets, knee and elbow pads, and full-body armor to go over molehills in the Garden of Eden. We re straight up goofy. Tenacious we are not. We ve lost that ride out the storm mentality. This book, if read and acted upon, will cure this girlie-man malaise.A trouble-less life with God and Christ doesn t exist. Jesus never promised His followers a carefree, no-conflict existence. Therefore, to not expect pain, to not brace for pain, and to not understand the role of pain guarantees that when it comes, you will be steamrolled by it. Yes, storms are a when, not an if affair. Jesus told us in the Sermon on the Mount that heartaches in life are a matter of when, not if. Are you ready? If not, don t freak, as the contents of this fast-paced and funky book seek to shore up your sagging spirit.
