We, as humans, are The Tempted. When we allow distance to exist between us and our loving Creator, we position ourselves to give in to what tempts us. The power that falsely binds us to sin is unmasked as we confront the lies that have separated us from the love of our heavenly Father. That which tempts us loses its power as we stand strong in the grip of His love. This book is about us, the tempted, and our human response to separation from our Heavenly Father. It's about understanding what causes us to yield to sin when we should be standing strong. Deborah Stricklin is an author, Bible...

Dreaming God-sized is not for the faint-hearted. Courage, faith, self-control, wisdom, humility, and unprecedented patience are all required as God unleashes the process of dream fulfillment in our lives.
