Fast-paced lives with high anxiety are the norm today. Getting through the Tough Stuff is an invitation to meet Christ at the crossroads and move beyond the tough times.

We live in a time when things are tough for a lot of folks. Turbulence in all its forms kept raging from all sides at us. The boomers are beginning to feel anxiety as they move toward retirement. Many people are facing financial pressure and are up to their ears in debt. We are having to care for both our kids and our parents.

The pace of life, and the demands of life, just keep getting more intense. For many of us who are Christians - believers in Christ - we are plunged into a time of paradox. Where is God in all of this? Where is the presence of the hope which is in us - Christ in His Holy Spirit? Are we not supposed to be filled with composure and the peace (of God)? And for many, these tough times bring life crises.

This is a book of encouragement, hope and freedom... an invitation to meet Christ at the crossroads of our lives and move beyond the tough times. It is a tome of hope that is not anchored in the superficialities of faith, but a faith that is grown deep and strong in the baptism of fire - the trials of life and pain.

With the wisdom gained from more than forty years of experience in ministry and a realistic view of the Christian life, Chuck once again sheds Christ�s light into the dark and complicated struggles we all face. Getting Through the Tough Stuff is a book of encouragement, hope and freedom . . .a challenge to encounter the Lord of Lords and King of Kings in the midst of our adversaries.

He has indeed prepared a table in the presence of our enemies..

A call to feast in His presence.
