Synopsis:Nothing reveals the gaps in our theology like a big, bad battle. When we are faced with a larger-than-life giant, we soon discover what we truly believe about God’s willingness and ability to defend us. In her first book, Beautiful Battlefields, Bo Stern discussed the ways her family’s battle with ALS has made them stronger and more effective than they have ever been―crediting the mercy of God and a solid understanding of His character. She’d studied His track record. She’d fastened herself to what she knew to be true of Him and refused to budge. These core truths about our Commander have become the sustaining force through her family’s struggles. While their theology has grown increasingly simple, it has also grown increasingly strong.

In her new book, Ruthless, Bo’s theology gets wonderfully practical as readers discover what God does for them and through them during “battles” they are engaged in. Ruthless helps readers to see God’s character in those battles and understand how He ruthlessly fights for them.

From the Back Cover: When you face the biggest battles of your life—and they will come—you need to know who has your back. Who can you trust with rock-solid certainty?

God is the One who will go before you in the fight. Do you trust Him?

You might be plagued with doubt and start thinking Can I really trust God? Why would He do this to me? Doesn’t He love me? Why has God abandoned me? But God goes before you in battle and ruthlessly fights for you.

In each chapter of Ruthless, author Bo Stern paints a portrait of one fundamental aspect of God’s character as revealed throughout Scripture. Reflection questions help you dig deeper to personally process what you believe.

Understanding God and knowing His character will help you deliberately choose to trust Him, which can be the most powerful weapon you will ever have in your arsenal.
