Rick Lawrence
"Sifted"
David C. Cook, 2011, 978-1-4347-0074-2, $14.99
"God's Scandalous Response to Satan's Outrageous Demand" In this exposition of Luke 22:31-32, Rick exlpores the meaning of trouble in the Christian's life. Suffering is inevitable, and if we're honest, the explanations commonly offered just don't hold up or help very much. But Jesus' perfect metaphore of sifting provides fresh perspective on why we suffer and what the sifting process can reveal in our lives. www.siftedbook.com
