How To Handle Adversity

Another excellent book by Charles Stanley. Wonderful faith filled advice that is so encouraging. I recommend this book.

I have read this book three times, each at a point of pain and difficulty. This is a great book and a mighty tool that God has used to change my life. We cannot choose what trials come into our life but our choices will determine what it will do to us. This book will equipt you to choose wisely. I recommend it to everyone, for adversity will come to all, sooner or later.

Everyone seems to know how to tell us the best way to handle troubles these days. Charles Stanley knows how to tell us the Scriptural way, and truly writes from the heart of God.Frankly, this book is only matched by the Joseph story in learning how God wants us to handle adversity. "With Joseph in the University of Adversity" is one of the best on this.Both this, and the Joseph book speak to us from the heart, and not from the lofty heights of pedantic scholarship. Dr. Stanley is loved by nearly everyone. His unique in insight into surviving adversity will only add to his followers!HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

This book says it all. It has really helped me during my times of adversity. It really gives you a perspective of just how temporary everything in this world is, and that one day JUSTICE will finally be served to all who have been avenged. Some day the temporary "party" will finally come to an end, and wicked people will ultimately be punished.

You will find all the answers to why things happen in our lives for a reason. If you are going through adversity in your life, you may find this book helpful.

The book shows you how important it is to really trust in God - how to understand God's purpose in one's life - and that situations we experience in our life can be a lasting benefit for us here on earth. One of the points that I discovered in the book was the ability to be a comforter. A comforter by definition of Charles Stanley is someome who has experienced and through that episode is able to offer true compassion and understanding by virtue of one's own identical experience. This book really gave me an opportunity to realise that all adversity is not necessarily 'bad', but infact a life building and beneficial experience. Therefore, one should rejoice during periods of adversity knowing God is in control and His master plan never fails!
