In this five-week study, Davis addresses life’s turbulent, trying moments by looking at some of Scripture’s most significant “storm stories.” By turning the popular phrase, “the calm before the storm” on its head, The Storm Before the Calm presents a unique take on the significance of life’s storms—grief, job loss, relationship failures, etc.—and how faith in Christ helps us weather them. Davis's message is clear and challenging: life’s storms prepare us for the calm that follows.
Discussion questions at the end of each chapter are designed to help leaders of small groups. Also available when purchasing the book is access to a free video trailer and an audio recording of the author's sermons as another way to experience the weekly message.
This was a very interesting and informative book to read. A great study for everyone who is looking to find ways to help them get through the rough times in life.
This five-week study was written to be used for personal or group work. It includes questions and a reflection at the end of each chapter to give the reader a chance to better absorb and think about what they have read.
Because of the way it is set up, I used the book as a morning devotional. Since the days aren’t marked, and there are plenty of great places to pause, I felt it worked well for me.
There are so many storms in life, I recommend this book as a way to help get through them.
