This series of self-help readers are designed to help guide those in relational pain toward the process of healing. While there are no easy answers to life's most difficult challenges, these books lovingly nudge readers to discover and embrace biblical solutions, hope, and encouragement.

Best-selling author Jerry Brides (The Pursuit of Holiness, The Discipline of Grace, The Bookends of the Christian Life, and many other books) asks perhaps the most fundamental question of existence: "Who am I?" He then turns to Scripture to unpack for the Christian eight clear, interlocking, illuminating answers: I Am a Creature / I Am in Christ / I Am Justified / I Am an Adopted Son of God / I Am a New Creation / I Am a Saint / I Am a Servant of Jesus Christ / I Am Not Yet Perfect. A direct, honest presentation of biblical truth, and all new material from Jerry Bridges, Who Am I? demonstrates for believers that they can and should rightfully claim for themselves an unshakeable, lifelong, personal foundation of confidence in one thing and one thing alone: the gospel of a victorious, resurrected Savior.

Why would a loving and powerful God allow so much pain and suffering? In Why Suffering? Ravi Zacharias and Vince Vitale carefully walk you through a variety of responses that considered together provide a clear, comprehensive, and convincing answer. Responses like:

Where there is the possibility of love, there has to be the reality of freedom, and therefore the possibility of pain.

Wishing God had made a different world is to wish yourself out of existence.

The cross is the key to a compelling and rational explanation for trusting in God in the face of suffering.

In comparison with other world religions, the Christian response is highly distinctive.

The reality of evil only makes sense in light of the reality of divine goodness.

Relational knowledge about God takes the argument beyond reason to the presence of God amidst suffering.

God's decision to allow temporal suffering is understandable when viewed from an eternal perspective.

Divine goodness shows how to conquer not in spite of, but even through suffering.

Here is a book written with great respect for the complexity of the issue, recognizing that some who read it will be in the trenches of deep suffering themselves and others questioning the very existence of a loving God. Why Suffering? provides an answer to the problem of pain and suffering with emotional sensitivity and intellectual integrity.

From Moses to Jesus, so many heroes of the Bible had to endure some type of wilderness season in their life, a time of testing that was painful to endure but ultimately brought glory to God.

In Wilderness Skills for Women, rising author/speaker Marian Jordan sees the same thing happening today as she and her friends still find themselves going through periods of isolation, temptation, sorrow, and waiting. Whether it's relationship drama, the constant pull of our sinful nature, a health issue, or any variety of unmet dreams, Jordan turns readers to God's Word as the ultimate wilderness survival guide.

Conversational and self-deprecatingly confessional in her delivery, this young writer finds ways to have fun with delicate subject matters, using wilderness analogies to great effect in chapters titled Drink Plenty of Water, Seek Shelter, and Don't Eat the Red Berries.
