Publisher's Synopsis
If you find yourself in severe personal trials, wondering where God is, this book is for you. Do you have a pile of insurmountable problems, a tragedy about to happen, or maybe a pattern in your life that goes on and on, never seeming to change or improve? It's another trip around the mountain, and the mountain is getting steeper and rockier every time. Huge obstacles keep blocking your way; death lurks around the next bend; a black cloud follows you wherever you go. What are we willing to endure in order to be changed by God? While the disciples expected to see greater victory, comfort, and excitement from their Master, Jesus talked more and more about dying, giving all, and taking up your cross. While they wanted to celebrate and make Him king, He told them He was going to suffer and die, and they were too. Why? Because suffering is the scriptural price of drawing closer to Him.
