All of us, at one time or another, face sorrow, grief, or loss—these challenges spare no one. The question is, How will we respond to those challenges? In this book, James W. Moore shows us that we have a choice. We can become bitter, or we can ask for God’s help to grow into better people.
The author examines different situations that give us the opportunity to choose our response to life’s tribulations—for example, when we experience loss; when we face change; when we encounter personal struggles; when we feel spiritually empty.  Moore relays his supportive and upbeat message through stories of healing through faith, hope, and resilience. Each chapter features a key passage of Scripture, as well as inspirational examples of the way others have dealt positively with life’s challenges.
 
This is a reissue of a Jim Moore general interest book with a study guide by John Schroeder added
