About the Book
Anxiety, doubt, and suffering can overrun your life—but if you stand up in faith and open your heart to God’s work, then he can transform even your most difficult circumstances.
Taking Your Stand explores the timeless truths recorded in the beginning of the book of Habakkuk, an account often overlooked but filled with lessons about finding hope, peace, and contentment.
Delving into stories found throughout the Bible and drawing from the author’s personal testimony, this book reveals how God can use your hardships to teach you, to grow your faith, and to reveal himself to you and those around you.
Don’t let fear or hardship defeat you; let Taking Your Stand guide you into a new assurance that the Lord God, the Creator and your personal savior, is working his purpose in your life.
