At some point in everyone's life they will have to choose whether to give up or to push on. It's not always an easy choice. Life seems to move us in directions that we don't always want to go.

This book will take on many different challenges. There will be biblical examples of perseverance along with real life stories. Some may be hard to read, others may not seem that bad, but all have one thing in common; the people involved chose to persevere rather than give up or give in. They fought and they trusted God when there was no other way to go and the road seemed to always have a dead end. I am sure that you will find at least one example that relates to you in a way that shows you what you need to know;

You are not the only one to go through it
and you too can survive and be an overcomer.

Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.
-James 1:2-4
