God’s solutions are practical, powerful, and life-changing, and they give us everything we need to remain anchored in eternity in an unsettled world. The Holy Spirit inspired James, brother of Jesus, to reveal them to us. The fires of our trials can either burn up our faith or purify it into something imperishable!Īs you begin reading The Art of Survival book, you will quickly understand that survivors have other options. As Christians, we know we are called to be overcomers- that the gospel promises victory, not victimhood. Jesus told His followers that they would have tribulation in the world but not to fear: He had overcome the world (John 16:33).
But, Peter told his readers not to be surprised at their painful trials as if they were something strange (1 Peter 4:12). The Bible tells us that we live in a fallen world and even though we’ve all experienced its resulting frustrations, we’re still sometimes surprised by the challenges we face. When we choose the right attitude, accept God’s resources, and get trained to see from His perspective, we can overcome trials with confidence!
He provides some answers for them- and us, which Chip calls the A.R.T. It was one of the earliest letters of the New Testament, written to acknowledge believers who had been scattered by persecution and needed to know how to survive. Life can be really difficult sometimes.īefore there was an art of survival book, there was James’ letter addressed to an early Church birthed in desperate times. We have relational struggles, financial problems, health issues, and many other challenges that shake our faith and often seem impossible to overcome. We each face crises in certain seasons of life, and some of them can be very traumatic. We get unsettled for personal reasons too.
But certain periods seem more chaotic than others, and in recent national and global events have shaken people deeply. The Art of Survival book is inspired by the book of James, which was written to desperate people, much like ourselves.
