In Resilience, Joe Gorman explores the resources of the Christian faith that can sustain us during difficult seasons, helping us gradually grow into the kind of people who can withstand life’s temptations, trials, setbacks, and storms.
Jesus told us that we would have trouble in this life, so it should not surprise us when we encounter events that require or test our resilience. Unfortunately, there is no easy formula for developing resilience without pain. The journey toward resilience is always messy and unpredictable, but the good news is that we do not have to travel by ourselves. In Resilience, Joe Gorman explores the resources of the Christian faith that can sustain us during difficult seasons, helping us gradually grow into the kind of people who can withstand life’s temptations, trials, setbacks, and storms.
