Resilient ― Live Beyond a Feel-Good Faith and Build a Spiritual Foundation That Lasts

If your foundation is faulty, you will not stand.
We live in a "feel-good" culture. We do things that violate our conscience because we feel like it. We buy things we can't afford because we feel like it. We leave our families for shortsighted flings because we've lost that "loving feeling." No wonder the mentality has found its way into churches. This way of thinking causes us to question our faith when problems arise or good things don't happen as we expect. These difficulties make us wonder: "Does God not love me? Wasn't every problem supposed to go away once I repeated the sinner's prayer with a pastor?"

Resilient explores all the watered-down ways of presenting the gospel over the past 50 years that can result in a shaky foundation. With examples from Jesus, along with the historic men and women that once defined our faith, Luce shows you how to build your confidence in God when you don’t understand, train your faith for endurance rather than just strength, and develop a solid faith foundation that will last through the good and the bad.
