Inhaltsangabe

The word If is a powerful little word. Some people are stuck in if only, trudging through lives marked with regret. But God wants us to live lives marked with possibilities, with the what if attitude that looks forward to the future with confidence. Why? Because the answer to "If God is for us, who can be against us?" is "No one." God is always on our side, every day, in every way.

Young people especially need to hear this life-changing message of hope and freedom from Mark Batterson and his son Parker. With his trademark enthusiasm and contagious joy, Batterson helps teens and young adults overcome those feelings of guilt, fear, and doubt that plague them and embrace the truth that in Christ there is no condemnation. Unpacking the promises of Romans 8, he shows young readers that they are more than conquerors--right now and forever. And because of that, the possibilities for their lives are limitless.

Are you stuck in if only--if only I hadn't said that to my parents, if only I hadn't quit that team, if only I hadn't screwed up that friendship? God can turn those if only regrets into a what if attitude that looks forward to the future with confidence. There are 1,784 ifs in the Bible. The most significant? "If God is for us, who can be against us?" It's the game changer! God is always on your side--every day, in every way--and that one little if changes everything.

With enthusiasm and contagious joy, Mark and Parker Batterson help you overcome guilt, fear, and doubt, because in Christ there is no condemnation. And because of that, the possibilities for your life are limitless.
