Synopsis "Living God's Way"
There is a paradox in the facts that God has a wonderful plan for your life and yet life is often filled with problems, trouble and, sometimes, outright suffering. Many people have stumbled over this paradox losing their faith and hope. Yet we see in the Apostle Paul, a man who endured tremendous suffering, the ability to rejoice, not only in the midst of suffering, but in the very difficult circumstances he was facing, knowing that God was using those circumstances for his good. I believe, he could do this because he learned the secrets of living God's way. Paul shares these insights about living God's way in his Biblical letters that we will be exploring in this book. We need to understand that even when, from our perspective, it looks like our lives are falling apart; from God's perspective, it may be our lives are merely falling into place. Anyone, with any degree of dissatisfaction with the way their life is going, should be looking for ways to understand how God can help them find meaning and satisfaction even while dealing with the struggles and pressures of life. That's what this book is all about. Since God made us, and this entire universe, He knows how things are designed to work. He also desires to show us His ways. He even sent His own Son to this world so we could understand how much He cares about us. This book was developed to give people a better understanding of what it means to be a follower of Christ. Anyone who wants more insight into living life, the way God designed life to be lived will benefit from what is found in this book. If following Christ is something you're considering, at this point in your life, this book will help you count the cost, as well as understand the rewards, of surrendering your life to your Creator. If you are already a follower of Christ, this book can help you focus on your God given purpose for living. It can help you gain victory in spiritual battle as you're reminded of God's love for you, the resources He provides and the nature of the battle we face in this world. It is way too easy for followers of Christ to lose focus and begin to conform to the pattern of this world. This book can help Christians regain their focus on Christ and the way He desires for us to live.
