OVERCOMING LIFE’S STRUGGLES
Bishop Donald Hilliard understands that we are under a great deal of pressure—financial pressure, family pressure, societal pressure—as communities break down and the world becomes more dangerous. Even in the church community, congregational members are under pressure to live up to the expectations of others. Bishop Hilliard knows that the Christian life is one of occasional stumbles and temptations, and that many choose a questionable road to acceptance and success.
In Bishop Hilliard’s latest book, In the Grip of His Mercy, each chapter focuses on a different type of pressure. Bishop Hilliard shows how Biblical figures such as David and Isaiah cracked under pressure, but how their faith in the Lord always led them back to the right path. He then shows how these same pressures apply today, and how readers can use the strength of the Lord to live in the glory of his mercy.
His simple yet powerful message is this: God has not changed; the road to the moral life has always been filled with traps and treachery; if we build our lives on the strength of faith we will not fall and cannot fail.
