“We live in a world that seems to be on the verge of coming apart. Shootings. Killer viruses. The threat of nuclear war. All of it is just too real.Why does the apocalypse craze in movies and video games appeal to so many people so strongly? One answer is it shows us the primal foundations of our existence. In the same way, what’s happening in our world today is moving Christians to return to the foundations of our spiritual existence. Believers everywhere must get back to what matters most. We must always remember that our battle, at its most basic level, is spiritual.
So, what are the spiritual tools–the essentials–that Scripture tells us we must remember and use as the end draws near?
In The End Times Survival Guide, you will discover ten spiritual tools the Bible relates directly to our preparation for the Lord’s coming–ten biblical survival strategies to live out in these last days so you and your family can prosper in an increasingly decaying, darkening world. These strategies won’t guarantee your physical or financial well-being, but they are guaranteed to bring life and vitality to your spiritual health and welfare as you cling to the immovable rock of God’s Word.
When life is whittled down to its essence, the real issue is our spiritual condition before God. Discover how you can protect yourself and your family spiritually in these dark days.”
My review:
This is an inspiring book. The title might seem to indicate that this book will be about prophecy; however, the focus of the book is how we should live in light of the fact that Christ could return at any moment. He continually points the reader to Christ and the Bible. The ten strategic topics the author covers are meant to help us find grace and hope as we navigate a world that is rapidly moving away from a Christian worldview. The author writes a very personable and readable way. Chapter 7 is entitled “Find Your Fraidy Hole”. That particular chapter was a source of encouragement to me as it focused on Psalm 46. I also loved Chapter 9, “Tune in to Heaven’s Frequency”. Just those two chapters alone are worth reading the book.
I am going to be reading this book again because I feel that I need to further mine the wisdom that’s here. This would be an excellent book for a book study group or class to read and discuss together.
I received a copy of this book from the publisher. All opinions are my own.
