Iron Will: Surviving the Storm recounts five stories of deadly storms and their impact on those forced to weather them. Those who want to survive must be prepared to face high winds, loss of electicity, intense flooding, and more." --Back cover.

Sometimes storms are predictable, which enables you to prepare and possibly decrease the impact. However, there are other times when a storm blows in suddenly, unexpectedly and wreaks havoc to everyone in its path. There is one thing that is certain and that is that storms of life will come. They will come to destroy, tear down, disrupt, and divide things and people alike. However, there is hope that you can survive the storm. God is able to bring you through any storm, if you just call him. Once you realize this certainty, then you become better equipped to deal with future storms. The Lord is the only one that can prepare us to deal with the stresses of life. He is our helper (Hebrews 13:6). He is our father, teacher, friend, protector, provider, healer and so much more. When we walk close to Him, He will walk close to us. (Scripture, Job 23:10) "But He knows the way that I take, and when He has tested me, I will come forth as gold). He will guide us, through the storms of life. Although we may face difficult situations, if God is with us, we can make it through.
