Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is a question almost as old as time. Why do bad things happen to people who seem to be obedient to God? What are we, as followers of Christ with faith in His promises, to make of the trials we go through in life? Can we come to a better understanding of our personal and collective trials and the very things that God is trying to teach us when He allows us to experience them? This book looks at those questions. We will look at the life of David through the lens of the trials he went through and how they shaped his life. We will look at the lives of the disciples and examine how Christ led them through some of their most significant moments and consider how these might relate to our own. We will dive deeper into some of the pivotal experiences in Peter's life to learn more about our own relationship with Christ during trials, including what happens when our trials are caused by our failures rather than our faith. We will also consider a few critical reasons why some trials may not go away despite our prayers and the kind of attitude we need to maintain during those times. We will learn why fear is one of our greatest enemies and forgiveness is one of our greatest friends. The Left-Handed Layup is a journey through our trials and the faith that it helps to build and develop.
