Walking Through Fire: Overcoming Life'S Worst Circumstances

Will you make it through? Will the depression and pain ever leave? Does it seem life has lost all meaning, never to be enjoyed again? When you are WALKING THROUGH FIRE, you think you may not even make it out alive. If you do, you feel your damage and loss may be too great to overcome. You did not see it coming. In its element of surprise, it is deceptive, divisive, destructive, and deadly. The realization dawns that some fires are a source of evil. You need strategies to fight, for the fire seeks to steal, kill, and destroy. Fire increases in intensity when fueled, and it causes you to want to give up. When surrounded by flames, you must know that you are not alone in the experience. Others have preceded you and overcome more trauma than you can imagine. Yet they survived. Many have thrived. Knowing their difficulties and accompanying them through their fire can get you through yours. Dr. Lisa Hamm wrote this book after a prolonged walk through fire. In the book she states, "In my IT, or rather my series of ITs, if you will, I landed in the middle of a flaming inferno. A fiery furnace so intense I could neither see nor breathe. My sole goal was to get out alive as soon as I could, but I could not. I was stuck. I was alone. Standing still did not help. I was desperately trying to move in all directions, hoping to find the exit, but I did not. My panic rose when I realized my powerlessness. All my resources had been used up, and I became angry, desperate, deeply depressed, and in a state of despair to the point that I prayed my life would end." Whether you or someone close to you has undergone tremendous loss, suffered from a debilitating illness, endured overwhelming hardship, lacked the resources to defend themselves from enemies, or dealt with terrible consequences for a poor decision, this book is for you! Read every sentence closely and enjoy the encounters with God in each chapter. They are present because God wants to heal your wounds and deliver you from whatever may be holding you back. If you are still in the fire, continue to walk. Hold this book in your hand with the Word of God and allow the pain and anguish you are feeling to make you cling to Him. You will persevere. You will overcome. Eventually you will walk out of the fire into the greatest season of your life and you will not smell of smoke. This book is also strongly suggested for book groups of 8-11 people. If possible, use the companion to this book, the OVERCOMER'S JOURNAL. The Overcomer's Journal includes suggested book group guidelines and questions. It also has room for recording your prayers and thoughts on your reading journey. It is best that some of the subject matter is processed with other mature Christians. Walking Through Fire is a literary treasure to return to often.
