ISBN: 978-1612913193
Genre: Christian Growth

Where is God in the midst of this? You’ve probably heard that question or perhaps asked it yourself. In the battle for your joy, your marriage, your finances, your health, an emptiness creeps in. Where is the peace You promised, God?

Bo Stern has been there—and is still there. Yet in studying the battles in Scripture, she came to a startling conclusion: God is using these fierce fights in our lives for an astonishing purpose.

BEAUTIFUL BATTLEFIELDS is written in conversational style which almost feels as if Ms. Stern is sitting across the table from you, sharing her personal story—along with others. A renowned speaker, she shares stories of a woman who was abused sexually, for half of her life. She shares the raw emotions associated with her husband’s diagnosis with ALS, and how he has been able to expand his ministry as a result.

In BEAUTIFUL BATTLEFIELDS, Ms. Stern answers the questions—in a very real way—about why God allows suffering. Can He use the pain that you (and others) work through? She also shows us how to find the beauty in the hard places, and strategies for growing stronger through the battles. $14.99. 192 pages. 5 stars.
