These are challenging times when the Christian’s appetite to be with God through prayer and Scripture, and to live for God through trust and obedience, diminish like air slowly leaking from a tire. You are vulnerable to old temptations you thought were in the past and new ones that pop up like moles you’re not fast enough to whack!

You are not alone, even though few have the language or the courage to talk about their struggle. You are not stuck, even though you feel neck-deep in mud. There is a way out of the staleness, the stagnancy, the slump! If we grab onto the rope of God’s grace and hold on for dear life, a spiritual slump can deepen us rather than destroy us. Every problem presents potential for growth. How we navigate the slump will determine the sort of person we become and the kind of life we live. Exploring the life of the Bible’s King David, this book presents tools for overcoming the slump so that we can reach our potential for a faithful, fruitful, and fulfilled life in Christ.
