A Christian can still feel beat up by life...

What an encouragement this book is! Why settle for simply getting through life's hard trials, when you can overcome them in Christ? If you are facing trials and trouble in your life as a Christian, and you are getting weary, this book is for you! The author not only knows her Bible, has overcome real problems in her life, but she also constantly encourages the reader to go back to The Lord for His personal right-now word for guidance. In her words, "There is a word from The Lord, even in the center of a storm. Sometimes the word is STAND (Ephesians 6: 13-14), sometimes the word is FIGHT (1 Timothy 6:12) and sometimes the word is TAKE FLIGHT (Matthew 2:13-15). After we hear from God we must ask Him to provide us with strength to follow His command. Surviving the storm is unlikely if we attempt to do one without the other." That advice alone may be enough to get you through the storm to the other side... Then what do you do? Read the book. TABLE OF CONTENTS: 1. Prisons of our Own Making. 2. The Dungeon Experience. 3.
