Never before has it been so important for Christians to discover
the answers God's Word holds to our culture's biggest ethical and
social dilemmas. Every day, the 24-hour news cycle offers stories
from around the world of unimaginable physical, mental, and
emotional suffering. Yet more often than not, these stories and the
underlying problems they represent are reported with no suggestions
for resolution. Can it really be true that there are no solutions
to our world's biggest crises?
Joni Eareckson Tada refuses to believe it. On her TV show, she has
interviewed scores of people who have faced life's toughest
battles--and emerged victorious! In Life in the Balance,
Joni and her friends take on some of the most difficult issues
covered by the evening news, such as street violence, abortion,
autism, genocide, and stem-cell research. But they don't just tell
the stories; they dig deep into the Word of God to find real and
lasting solutions to so-called "unsolvable" problems. This
workbook, designed for participants in a Life in the Balance
individual and group study, will guide readers to apply the
timeless yet timely truth of God's Word to society's greatest
challenges.
