Read moreJoe Barnard writes that Christian men today are alarmingly unprepared for the daily battle against the lusts and sinful desires in each man’s heart. His book Surviving the Trenches gives you hope that the victory over sin has already been won, but it underscores the deadliness of the battle to claim that victory as a daily personal experience. Surviving the Trenches deals honestly with the battle—it is difficult and dangerous, and there are no shortcuts for easy victories. As the Royal Navy maxim notes, ‘If you want peace, prepare for war.’ Joe’s book prepares men for the battle with an insight that is learned, biblical, challenging, and captivating. From 10 rules for the battle to the lies sin uses against all of us, Surviving the Trenches shoots straight with a clarity that is refreshing and informative. And you will understand the battle you are in and how to persevere to claim the victory Christ has won. You won’t be able to put this book down, and you can’t afford to miss its message.
