Crap Lingers When You Don’t Wipe

Whether we like it or not, hardship is part of life. Triumphing over difficulty is one of the biggest obstacles we face. Just as pain is a part of life, so is God. Rejecting the two is like rejecting life itself. Problems, large and small, present themselves to us throughout our life. The battle of addressing our mess and moving on with our lives won’t end tomorrow, but neither will God’s sustaining grace.

An unwise human trait is to get caught up in the self-loathing, unfairness of life, or 'why me?' traps. When we do, we fail to embrace and own our personal stories in totality, along with failing to recognize the opportunities for wisdom and development that accompany hardship. When we allow ourselves to think more clearly, we can let go of self-crushing and ineffective thoughts and get down to the business of dealing with what's before us.

In Crap Lingers When You Don’t Wipe, you will learn how to be thankful for your story of adversity, process appropriately, and deal with positioning yourself for a comeback responsibly. Through personal stories of trauma and practical tools for systematically and Biblically recovering from consecutive loss, Pierre LaMar Johnson shares how to respond positively and constructively to your biggest challenges. The result will be that the qualities of strength, bravery, character and tenacity emerge from deep inside of you.
