Puritan author James Burdwood reminds us that trouble is not the exception in the Christian life—it’s the expectation. Drawing from the suffering in his own life, he explores why believers are often distressed and how faith in God and Christ offers the best antidote to fear and anxiety.

He encourages Christians to put their faith in everything about Christ—His person, His promises, and His presence. This edition has been retypeset for modern readability and printed with smyth-sewn binding and acid-free paper, preserving its spiritual wisdom for generations of readers.
