(The purpose of these pages is to provide Biblical help for times of fiery
trials, tribulations, adversity, testing, trouble, and difficulty.)

<B><FONT size=+1>All Christians, at one time or another, must go through
times of adversity and difficulty. We must be sure that when these times
come, we respond to them in such a way that we and others reap the full benefit
of the purpose the Lord has in mind for the trial. Christians who are unprepared
for trials often panic and fail to fully appreciate God's purpose in the
trial. These pages are designed to help you find peace, comfort, and spiritual
growth in the midst of the trials that come your way.</FONT></B>
