But Encourage One Another Daily As Long As It Is Called Today eBook

The greatest and most singular need for people who want to follow Jesus is courage. We need to have courage put into us. And we need it not just every now and then or before a big challenge or in the midst of a hard struggle or loss—we need it every day. The big crises of unjust treatment, unforeseen losses, tragic deaths, life-stealing diseases, betrayals, relationship failures, and all manner of pain and suffering can create seasons of wilderness, as can the more every day pressures that tempt us to spiritual slumber. But this is where the kingdom of God breaks in—places of loss, suffering, hardship, brokenness, and pain. For followers of Jesus, when you are being broken down, it is a sign that the kingdom of God is breaking in. Join J. D. Walt in this Daily Text series that will challenge and encourage you to discover that the joy of the Lord is the revolutionary presence of Jesus Christ himself—in us and catalyzing the perseverance of our faith.
