When Trouble Strikes : Handling the Losses in Your Life (Paperback)

Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love Him. James 1:12

Trials and temptations are a sad reality in this fallen world. None of us is immune to the effects of sin.
The original recipients of the Letter of James knew more than their share of suffering. They were a displaced people, they had lost property and loved ones, they had to start all over from scratch while still grieving their losses.
James offers practical advice on how not to become bitter but rather better by helping us understand how God uses the trials of life to make us more like Himself.
Packed with practical insight, this book is a must-read for everyone trying to make sense of and survive these troubled times.
