Ten Practical Resolutions to Stand Strong in the Shifting Sands of Culture

We all face seasons in our lives when our circumstances seem out of our control and all the forces in this world seem against us. We become discouraged and afraid. We are tempted to give up. No matter how strong we claim our faith in God is, when life is hard, it all comes down to resolve. Do we really believe what we say we believe? And does what we profess with our lips make it beyond intellectual assent and into our everyday actions?

Both challenging and encouraging, Resolved unpacks ten life-impacting resolutions that every follower of Jesus Christ must make in order to stand strong in the shifting sands of our culture. It helps readers who long to exhibit authentic lives understand and eliminate the disconnect between what we say we believe and how we live. And it offers biblical strategies for change that will allow us to stand strong--no matter what.

"In a world that's constantly trying to draw us away from God, Lina points us to the biblical truths we must cling to and believe above all else. What a wonderful resource this book is!"--Lysa TerKeurst, New York Times bestselling author and president of Proverbs 31 Ministries  

No matter how strong we claim our faith in God is, when life is hard, it all comes down to resolve. Do we really believe what we say we believe? And does what we profess with our lips actually show up in our everyday actions? Both challenging and encouraging, Resolved unpacks ten life-impacting resolutions every follower of Jesus Christ must make in order to stand strong in the shifting sands of our culture, including

· believe when it looks ridiculous
· love when it's inconvenient
· obey when it's not popular
· speak up when it's easier not to
· and more

If you want your life to boldly declare that God is real and alive and powerful and risen from the dead, Resolved will show you how--even when it's hard.


"Jesus told us to come and follow Him. He didn't say it was going to be easy. To do it, we need resolve. I love Lina, and I love this message that is sure to help us break away from a toe-deep, defeated faith to one that rocks our world for Jesus."--Christine Caine, author of Undaunted and cofounder of the A21 Campaign

"Cultural Christianity promises the 'good life,' but authentic Christian faith remembers the words of Jesus: 'In this world you will have trouble.' Dr. Lina AbuJamra challenges us to live out our faith in the real world when things do not go as we wish. 'Follow me' is still the call of Christ. Anything less is not worthy of the name Christian."--Gary D. Chapman, PhD, author of The Five Love Languages and Love As a Way of Life
