Learn to navigate hard times, walk in wisdom, and find hope during life's darkest times.
Book Synopsis
Nobody makes it through life without facing some kind of crisis. Sooner or later, we arrive at the moment where the rug gets pulled out from under us, our world is falling apart, and it feels like the walls are closing in on us. On top of the pain of hardship, life's difficult times can also become a crisis of faith. They leave us asking:
Do I have what it takes to make it through?
Is it all over for me?
Will it ever get better?
Does God really love me?
In God Is for You, pastor Mac Brunson reminds you that you never have to face hard times alone - not through principles or pat answers, but by pointing you to the person and presence of a God who never stops loving you and advocating for you, even when it feels like the whole world is against you.
Born out of the most difficult season of his life, Brunson reframes crisis in light of God's wisdom and offers a new perspective on the common setbacks humans face, from being treated unfairly to feeling like you've been sidelined and God can't use you. By learning to wait on and walk in God's wisdom during crisis, you can stop making decisions out of fear, navigate hard times well, and not just make it through calamity but come out better on the other side.
