The Cross-trained Companion: Defeat the enemy in the arena and discover the winner with in
This book helps solve the issue of understanding who God is, and how we keep Him first in our busy lives.
Kathleen Rossi invites readers to discover how God carries us through every season of life—from spiritual warfare to divine destiny. Included inside is access to an online e-course, scripture references and outlines, a quick reference chart, as well encouraging prompt & journaling space.This guide is a transformative seven-part spiritual journey that explores the character of God through His Hebrew names and Biblical narratives.
Structured around seven foundational themes (Conquest, Abide, Rise, Redeem, Ignite, Endure, and Destiny), each section reveals a unique holy name of God & demonstrates how His character provides what we need most in our faith walk. Through engaging storytelling, personal testimonies, & in-depth Scripture study, readers encounter Jehovah Nissi (The Lord My Banner), Jehovah Shama (The Lord Is There), Jehovah Rapha (The Lord Your Healer), Jehovah Tsidkenu (The Lord Our Righteousness), Jehovah Jireh (The Lord Will Provide), Jehovah Chayim Mayim (The Lord, Living Water), & Jehovah Shalom (The Lord Is Peace).
With raw vulnerability & authentic faith, the writer weaves together modern-day parables with ancient Biblical truths. Each chapter includes Hebrew word studies, pattern recognition throughout Scripture, and practical applications that challenge readers to move from dysfunction to divine purpose.
The guide addresses profound questions like, Would it change your mind if you knew how much God loved you? & What do we need for endurance?, while tackling real issues: childhood trauma, physical healing, generational wounds, and finding purpose when you feel like someone's 'plan B'. Through powerful stories of redemption readers learn that God's redemptive work is always specific & undeniable.
Combining the warmth of a trusted mentor with the depth of solid biblical teaching, The Cross-trained Companion offers both structured module notes for study & conversational teaching chapters for personal reflection. This is not a book of religious platitudes but an honest exploration of what it means to walk with God through valleys and victories, knowing that even when we can't climb, He carries us to heights we never imagined.
Perfect for individual study, small groups, or anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of God's character & their identity in Christ.
