There are also perils from within: false teaching, worldliness, and discouragement. All these circumstances arise in the biblical books that this volume covers. The readings have been selected to encourage Christians living in difficult times and at the same time provide evangelistic encouragement. The carefully selected daily Bible readings cover 366 days. As the readings are used, you will encounter biblical characters who, like Christians today, faced hostility and persecution and yet by the grace of God triumphed in them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #38761d;\"\u003eAlec Taylor was for many years the minister of Chelmsley Wood Baptist Church, Solihull.
