Beloved author and Bible teacher Michele Cushatt offers ten practices to strengthen your confidence in God's daily presence and power and build a faith strong enough to endure even the toughest seasons.

Life can be hard. Although there are moments of beauty and goodness, more often than not, life is marked by fear, struggle, disappointment, and loss. And we don't know what to do with it. We've tried to find hope and security in various people and places—but each has proved unworthy of our trust. We need more. Something—or Someone—who won't fail us when our world falls apart.

In this book, beloved author and Bible teacher Michele Cushatt presents a better way. By exploring powerful personal, historical, and biblical stories of people of extraordinary faith, she curates and shares ten practices to help you deepen your confidence and certainty in the God who can be trusted with your worry, questions, confusion, and grief. As a woman who has been through immeasurable suffering, she writes with both deep compassion and practical insight as she guides you to:

  • Practice lament and process grief without guilt or shame
  • Understand what keeps you from trusting God and how to navigate doubt with truth
  • Learn simple ways to foster shalom and gratitude on a daily basis
  • Develop a fresh, eternal perspective that delivers both peace for today and hope for tomorrow
  • Savor daily "faith-builder" practices to strengthen your confidence in God's love and purposes for you, no matter what happens
  • There is hope in your hardship and a God who is both with you and for you. These ten practices point the way to the only One you can truly trust, and ultimately, to a faith in him that will not fail.

        Business coach Cushatt (Relentless) encourages readers in this earnest yet flawed entry to build a solid faith foundation to weather life’s storms. The author, who has endured divorce, single motherhood, and cancer, starts out with a question she’s frequently been posed—“How do you still believe, after so many reasons not to?”—before outlining 10 broadly defined practices that kept her grounded during moments of struggle. One is humility, which via shared vulnerability and activities such as confession can improve one’s relationship with Jesus (“God is compassionate toward our human predicament”) and others. Meanwhile, worship gives believers the “time to consider the magnitude and mystery of God,” and while doing so, they should contemplate God’s “nearness,” just as God stayed close to protect the Israelites as they left Egypt. Throughout, “five-minute faith-builders” help readers apply Cushatt’s lessons (“What is one action you can take to assume a posture of humility today?”). Though the author’s approach sometimes feels overly granular and offers relatively routine lessons (the value of forgiveness, trust in God, etc.), her earnest advice will provide encouragement to those looking to deepen their faith. This has its moments, but readers will need to sift through the filler to find them.
