Book excerpt: “It just shouldn’t be this hard!” Raise your hand if you’ve ever had a day where everything that could go wrong does go wrong—you lock your keys in the car while it’s running, lose control with your kids, make a mistake at the office that results in hours more work. And just when you think not one more thing could possibly happen . . . well, fill in the blank. The struggle is real, friends. It may not be major stuff. Lives are not on the line here. But it makes us feel awful . . . and then we feel guilty for stressing when other people have “real” problems that are so much more serious. Yet the fact remains: We live in a world that often feels harder than we think it should be. And so it can be easy to believe the stories we tell ourselves—that we’re doing it wrong, that we’ll be stuck in this place forever, that God doesn’t love us. We struggle to practice gratitude, to make godly choices, and to live our daily lives with confidence and contentment. So what can we do? Join popular Bible teacher and counselor Nicole Unice to discover why the struggle is real . . . and what to do about it. Nicole offers practical tools to help you navigate the daily ups and downs, and ways to rewrite your struggle into a new, God-centered life story.

How do you roar like that? Well, we have to face our trials with a lot of bravery and courage. We have to dig deep and know our identity - both who we are and whose we are - so we can stand in authority. We have to know how to partner with God to shift our circumstances.You can come out of the other side of your mess a warrior because she's done it. She has discovered how to triumph, how to fight back, how to overcome, and how to breakthrough. For the past 15 years, Cherlyn has helped hundreds of people just like YOU not only survive the trials but use them, learn from them and get breakthrough for ourselves and others. And now in this book, Cherlyn will teach you how to do just that, how to ROAR back. And when you do, then then you will not only transform your struggles into strength, but you will be equipped to face whatever comes your way.
