As its title suggests, this book provides instruction to readers on how to solve problems of their own making. The authors use the colorful and eternally relevant stories of the Bible as a guide to everyday living.
Drawing from life experiences with and without faith, the coauthors credit accepting Christ as the most successful and life-changing way of digging yourself out of a hole, and they want to share that lesson with you.
This book includes chapters on Adam, Saul, Samson, Jonah, the woman at the well, the prodigal son, and Lot. In the stories, these famous Biblical figures first oppose God's teaching and often choose stubbornness or denial-much as we do today. They find themselves in a hole, and they just keep digging. It's only by turning to God that they can make matters right.
The warning against digging holes applies to our nation as a whole, and this work discusses the far-reaching consequences of such historic decisions as the Supreme Court's Roe v. Wade and the resulting ills that have beset America.
For those seeking a life aligned with God, this book's stories create the perfect practical guide.
