Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Reclaim your joy and thrive through the storms of life when you find your strength in God.

The human soul has a built-in yearning for joy, beauty, and all good things. However, that craving for life is easily lost amidst the pace and demands of modern life. Join New York Times bestselling author John Eldredge as he provides the tools you need to follow Jesus' path of supernatural resilience.

People today face a shortage of peace, happiness, and strength, caught between false promises of ease and comfort on one side and the sheer busyness and stress of daily life on the other. In Resilient, Eldredge reveals a path toward genuine recovery and resilience through Jesus himself.

Drawing on wisdom from Scripture and Christian tradition, and illustrated with powerful, true stories of grit and survival, Resilient will help you:

  • Tap into the river of life that God promises his people
  • Learn to be patient with yourself—genuine recovery from spiritual and emotional trauma takes time and intentionality
  • Create a plan to foster resilience in your day-to-day life
  • Discover deep wells of freedom and strength through Christ who lives within us

Thriving requires a resilient soul. This book will help you find the resilience you long for when the world has gone mad—and discover in Jesus himself the strength that prevails.
