6 Verses That Can Change Your Life

Life's storms come accompanied by questions: Why me? Why this? Why now? "In this world you will have trouble," Jesus said. "Tell me about it," you say. You don't need anyone to tell you about storms. You have your own story to tell here. But maybe you could use a little help getting through them and fi nding shelter. That's what this book is about-shelters from life's storms. Six of them: Trust, Assurance, Courage, Patience, Peace, Joy. The front door to each is a single verse of Scripture. Joe Barnett takes you through that door and explores the shelter's provisions with you. He doesn't trivialize the storm you are facing, serve up trite solutions for tough problems, or try to force-feed you a joy pill. With compassion, honesty, and humor he deals gently with those who are bruised, drawing from personal experience and real-life stories of others who have been there. Here's the question: Do you feel a need for any of these shelters? If the answer is yes, then this book was written with you in mind, and hopefully will fi nd its place on your nightstand.
