You may not be able to avoid the storms of life. But, you can learn to dance in the rain.
Millennials today are privileged with nearly unfettered access to instant gratification. Social media and the western mindset promotes an entitlement to unshakeable happiness. However, although we cannot escape the reality of pain in our life or control hardships, we can choose how we respond to them.
After Jeff Grenell lost his wife of thirty-one years, he decided to write a book to help millennials approach hardship and suffering in life. Interwoven in his story about his wife's sixteen-month battle with cancer is a unique perspective on the book of Job: Grenell offers readers a glimpse of what the righteous man who lost everything just might tweet to younger generations were he alive today.
God may not be the cause of your situation, but, He is there because of your situation. Grenell discusses the lie perpetrated by pop psychology and the mainstream media that "everything' s okay" and that personal happiness is all that matters. Despite his suffering, Job was never without God's presence and peace. After reading this fast-paced book, you will see that Job kept his faith and persevered through his losses. And you will learn that so did Grenell, and so can you.
The family is at the center of every society on the planet. And so is hardship. This book shows how the family can be a strength in the middle of crisis and suffering. Through this refreshingly honest and inspirational book, Grenell helps reshape a generation's perception and understanding of adversity.
