In Against the Ropes: Developing grit in the spiritual fight, you will learn what it means to have grit with whatever life throws at you. As a boxer finds himself "against the ropes" in the ring, he knows he has a decision to make. Does he lay down and take it, or does he decide to get back up and keep fighting. The same is true for life, especially the Christian life. The enemy, or just life in general, will throw things at you, but it is what you do in response that truly matters. It is your choice to make, but there are some things you can have in your corner that makes getting up easier. Those are faith, family, and fight. This book dives into what "faith" in God truly looks like. You must have faith that God is who he says he is, that he loves and wants the best for you, that he can move and work in any situation, and that he still does miracles. Then you need "family, " Whether this is biological or just a spiritual family, you need people in your corner helping you when you’re down, picking you back up, and holding you accountable in your spiritual walk. Finally, you need to have "fight." We live in a culture where the fight mentality is rare, but there is a real, spiritual battle going on all around us, and you can either sit on the sidelines or get in the fight. Every hard situation you face, you have a decision to make. Will you use this to allow the Lord to develop more "grit" in you, or will you use this as an excuse to give up or throw in the towel? Jesus doesn’t say "if" we have trials, but "when." That means difficult situations will come, but we have a unique opportunity to use those to be stronger in our faith, develop stronger bonds with people than we knew was possible, and develop a fight mentality we didn’t know we could have.
