The Works

William Shifflett is the author of two book, Friendly Fire and Embracing the Power of Trial. He is a pastor and bible teacher. Are these accurate representations of the Christian life? If so, what do we do with the Bible's call to rejoice in trials? In this debut work, Pastor William Shifflett asserts that trials are in fact normal for the Christian and should be embraced. Using personal anecdotes, straightforward Bible teaching, and supporting quotes from an array of Christian leaders and speakers, Friendly Fire leads you on a hope-filled journey through ten dimensions of trials from God's sovereign control of and purpose for our pain to our frantic search for explanations.
