Resilient

Find the Secret to True Strength

Some days we wake to a world of crystal skies and bright possibilities. And other days it’s to rain pelting our windows and thunder rattling our roofs. How can we stay strong when the storms of life hit—when a spouse leaves, a client sues, unemployment strikes, or our dreams fail to come true? Is it possible not just to weather these trials, but bound back even stronger through them?

After facing his own fierce storm, author and broadcaster Sheridan Voysey tried an experiment—he would read Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount every day for a month. That experiment continued a second month, then a third, as he discovered Jesus’ astounding invitation for weak people to become strong, little people to become great, and for all of us to find resilience by putting these radical teachings into practice.

Rich with stories and deep with insight, Resilient is a journey of 90 readings designed to recalibrate your callings, relationships, spiritual practices, and life choices—helping you to find resilience.

Praise for Resilient

	Refreshing and wise, Resilient takes the words of Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount right out of the ‘nice-but-unrealistic’ box we’ve placed them into, and centers this rich teaching smack into our messy real lives where it belongs. Resilient is hopeful, practical, and challenging—I loved it. Sarah Bessey, author of Jesus Feminist and Out of Sorts
	Beautifully written, deeply inspiring meditations to begin or end the day. Both the beginning disciple and the senior saint—and everyone in between—will find Resilient prodding, challenging, and nurturing. Ron Sider, author of Rich Christians in an Age of Hunger
	This is a powerfully written, spiritually nourishing, and practically enabling series of meditations by a master communicator, intimate with God and connected to today’s culture.  Simon Ponsonby, author of More and God Is for Us, and Pastor of Theology at St Aldate’s, Oxford
	When a heart is teachable in and through the trials of life, God grows a reservoir of wisdom through which he can move, act, and reveal. Sheridan Voysey is that heart and he shares much truth and wisdom in this book. Thank you, Sheridan, for leading us to deeper waters of truth in Christ. Denalyn Lucado, coauthor of Lucado Treasury of Bedtime Prayers
