Faithfully walking--and uncovering joy--on a road paved with suffering.
The Christian life is marked with great suffering. We live in a fallen and broken world full of disappointments and the loss of dreams. And there is a cost to following Christ.
Lina shares how God's refining process makes Him bigger in our hearts and transforms us into people who are like Him. Our pain can lead to despair and bitterness, or it can make us more like Jesus. But we must be willing to undergo the refining process--and this hurts.
Without denying the real pain many of us carry, Lina shows Christians how to rediscover joy. Lina looks to current and biblical stories to show us how refined people can be used by God to persevere and build His kingdom.
Still Standing is an updated edition, previously published with the title Stripped.
