Summary

Everybody faces Mondays. No one gets a free pass. In some ways, every day is Monday. Mondays are the make-or-break days that lead to character development, achievement, and fulfillment. The Bible is replete with stories of people who faced their Mondays and provides principles to help us face our own. Still Standing looks at some of the greatest "weekday warriors" in history--men and women who not only engaged in the battle, but won it. Biblical examples include: Joseph, who illustrates how to respond when we get what we don#146;t deserve Daniel, who inspires us to stand for what#146;s right when no one else does or will Job, who puts unexplained problems and setbacks in proper perspective Written for everyone who faces life#146;s challenges, this book reveals the God-given principles for how to win those daily battles.
