Rise Above
Description:... This book, Rise Above, gathers the Biblical narrative of Peter walking on the water in Matthew 14 with Farah Jolag's personal experiences and thoughts to help guide Christians on the path to overcoming the storms of their lives.
When the world feels unsafe, and the people around us seem bitter, it can be tempting to reflect our environment. When things are not going our way, it's normal to feel like giving up. We may look for excuses to quit the difficult walk that is leading us towards our goals. When others despise us and commit hateful wrongdoings towards us, our initial reaction may be to retaliate; but we shouldn't. We should always be unlike those who dedicate their time to hurt us. For every excuse we may think of to quit, there are solutions to get past the roadblocks. When our environment is weak and negative, we need to rise above it all. This book points the way.
