For many, the Christian life looks like this: You call out to God. Your problems get worse. You suffer and wait. Nothing changes. Author John S. Dickerson knows the feeling. A rare health condition drove him to examine the Bible’s claim that when I am weak, then I am strong. As a journalist, Dickerson has seen severe human suffering. As a pastor, he has comforted others through unimaginable grief. He wrote I Am Strong to give understanding, hope, and strength to the hurting.

In its chapters, I Am Strong equips you to:

Unlock God’s strength for your difficulties. Understand how a loving God will resolve your pain. Know God’s plan to repurpose your pain, injustice, and inadequacy. Understand why your suffering does not mean God is punishing you. Overcome life’s circumstances as Christ and Paul did. Discover the life-changing power of God’s strength in your weakness.

I Am Strong breathes hope and comfort. Much more, it offers daily practices and lifelong vision on which to build an unshakeable life of meaning and peace.
