When it comes to suffering in the Christian life, being prepared is eminently more important. Why? In Luke 14, Jesus gives two easily understood scenarios to emphasize this point: going out to battle and building a tower. Unpreparedness in either realm can prove disastrous. To be unprepared in a business deal may cost the loss of a sale or revenue. But to be unprepared in the Christian life has eternal consequences.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book, Be Prepared: Developing and Implementing a Theology of Suffering, is a call to all believers to not be caught off guard as it relates to suffering. Despite what many preachers are saying, suffering is not the abnormal experience of a child of God. Suffering is a \"normal part of the Christian life.\" Jesus, Paul, James, and Peter all make this abundantly clear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs you read this book, may the Lord equip you to develop and maintain this reality in your own life. Philippians 1:29 tells us that a precious gift from our Savior is both to believe in His name and to suffer for His sake. It's a package deal. Let's be careful how we use His gift.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.24 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 30, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47377707532537,"sku":"9798893087222","price":16.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/eCBZWs2FJo9798893087222.webp?v=1770038664","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/be-prepared-developing-and-implementing-a-theology-of-suffering-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
