Storm

A must listen for church leaders and laypeople who are worried about the state of the church today, and are looking for a convicting read that will give them confidence to continue to be a light in a dark world.

Pastor Jim Cymbala believes that the church is on the edge of a major storm. The warning signs of decreasing church attendance, watered-down messages, and pastor burnout are all around. Many people are concerned that the direction of our culture is becoming darker and more antagonistic toward the faith. But is the problem outside the church—or inside.

Cymbala tackles the problem not with despair but with hope. With inspiring stories of changed lives and growing churches, he draws listeners back to prayer, offers ways to lead with love, and reminds listeners why the message of grace matters more than political trappings. He also explores the atmosphere of the early church, which flourished despite far worse conditions than Christians in the west face today.

Cymbala’s first prophetic book about the challenges the church is facing, Storm will help both laypeople and leaders understand what is happening in the church and why the power of the Holy Spirit can never be defeated.
