Christian Book Review - Living with Confidence in a Chaotic World, by David Jeremiah

Annie’s Ink-Lings

“Sure, we realized the good times couldn’t last forever.  Everybody knows that economies move through seasons and cycles, just like everything else.  What goes up must come down – just basic common sense, right?  Still, those realizations didn’t quite prepare us for the reality.  It was as if the United States of America went to the doctor’s office for its annual checkup.  The nurse said, ‘This will hurt just a little bit,’ then picked up a mallet and smashed us a good one on the head!”

This is part of the introduction to Living with Confidence in a Chaotic World, by David Jeremiah.  While this book is mainly about the aftermath of the economic crisis of 2008, it is still pertinent to the present chaotic, disastrous, and fearful time.   Confidence can be hard to come by these days. People are losing their jobs, their houses, and their life savings at an unprecedented rate. Violence, natural disasters, and moral depravity seem to be skyrocketing.  

In the midst of all this chaos, we need to know...what on earth should we do now? You will find hope and confidence from the priceless counsel of the Word of God as he answers our most urgent questions, including:  •How can we weather this storm with a calm heart?  •What does it truly mean to “wait on the Lord?”  •What is Jesus saying to our chaotic world today?

Highly recommended.  Pick up a copy to read soon.
