God’s Discipline
A Word of Encouragement in the Midst of Hardship
Tim Chester
Tackles one of the biggest struggles in the Christian’s life
Helpful and encouraging
Part of the Crosslands series
‘Encouragement’ isn’t usually the first word that comes to mind when we think about God’s discipline, but that is how the writer of Hebrews describes it. Our Heavenly Father uses suffering to discipline His children, and uses it to shape us a little bit more into the image of His glorious Son.

The Body of Christ needs this book. For who among us hasn’t struggled to endure and be trained by hardship? In this pithy volume, Tim Chester tells us how we can move beyond the pain of life’s heartaches to enjoying the harvest of righteousness and peace promised in Hebrews 12.

Timely and needful. Tim Chester’s treatment of a difficult issue is both pastorally sensitive and biblically faithful. A “go–to” aid for those who find themselves in need of help and counsel when the rod of chastisement strikes. Warmly recommended.

As I read these pages, Tim’s writing stirred my heart with the truth that we enjoy a God who so loves us, His children, that He refuses to neglect our souls.
