Product Description
by Marios Ellinas (Author)
Tests-everyone faces them Tests are intermittent-they occur frequently throughout our lifetime. Tests are temporary-none last indefinitely. Tests are imposing--they invade and challenge our comfort zones. Tests are necessary-they gauge our progress, help fortify our strengths, and provide opportunities for improvement. In The Next Text, Marios Ellinas draws from biblical insight and his diverse knowledge and experience to examine various concepts surrounding the subject of life's tests. Marios proposes that tests, though generally uncomfortable and even painful, can be beneficial to us; for they prove us at levels we have already attained and promote us to levels we are destined to reach. The book offers each reader not only revelation and encouragement, but also an opportunity to encounter the God who stands with us through all tests, desiring our advancement. Tests are good. Our next test may be our best one yet
