Being God's Man
Being God's Man in Tough Times: Real Life. Powerful Truth. For God's Men
David was to be the future king of Israel. And yet, as you’ll see firsthand in this compelling Bible study, the journey to that goal was filled with dangers, delays, and difficulties.
Just like David, every man has a dream of who he wants to become. But getting there is a different story. Hardships and losses can destroy the faith–and even the life–of a lesser man.
Many men fail to realize their dreams because they choose comfort over character, image over substance, and escape over endurance. But a man who knows how to embrace hardship and learn to mine it for God’s purposes will see his godly dreams come true.
Hardships are inevitable. Embracing them is a choice. God’s dream for you is at stake. And Being God’s Man…in Tough Times will equip you to overcome life’s difficulties in the power and wisdom of God.

This Bible study uses much of David's story in 1 Samuel as a back drop. It is an 8 week study concentrating on how we should react when we face tough times.
Trusting God to work good through the rough times is one of the things I have the hardest time doing. Many of us are raised to be independent but you learn to lean on God through this study. Our society won't always accept or understand you when you follow these teachings but you need to learn to swim against the current.
