About the Book
“It just shouldn’t be this hard!”
Raise your hand if you’ve ever had a day where everything that could go wrong does go wrong—you lock your keys in the car while it’s running, lose control with your kids, make a mistake at the office that results in hours more work. And just when you think not one more thing could possibly happen . . . well, fill in the blank.
The struggle is real, friends. It may not be major stuff. Lives are not on the line here. But it makes us feel awful . . . and then we feel guilty for stressing when other people have “real” problems that are so much more serious.
Yet the fact remains: We live in a world that often feels harder than we think it should be. And so it can be easy to believe the stories we tell ourselves—that we’re doing it wrong, that we’ll be stuck in this place forever, that God doesn’t love us. We struggle to practice gratitude, to make godly choices, and to live our daily lives with confidence and contentment. So what can we do?
Join popular Bible teacher and counselor Nicole Unice to discover why the struggle is real . . . and what to do about it. Nicole offers practical tools to help you navigate the daily ups and downs, and ways to rewrite your struggle into a new, God-centered life story. The Struggle Is Real is an invitation to take the hard, hurtful, and confusing moments and turn them into opportunities to grow in wisdom, strength, and joy.

My Review
4 STARS!!!
Unice has
down-to-earth practical advice about life and how to live the new one we find
in Christ. By her own example, as well as from people she knows through her
ministry, she shows us how to go forward in the new, and not turn around and
embrace the old. I am suitably impressed with her insight and articulation as I
have not heard of her so obviously this is the first of her books I have read.
Her website says she is a pastor/teacher/counselor and I can certainly see the
counseling aspect in The Struggle is Real.
I gained some insight into my own past experiences that will help me in my
future walk with Christ.
I recommend this book to anyone who is struggling and might
not be ready to talk to someone face-to-face. The words of inspiration and truth
in this book can help you in your faith journey and point you to who Jesus is
and how he has bestowed his grace in your life.
I was provided a print copy of the book from the publisher.
I was not required to write a review. No compensation has been received.
