Book excerpt: Our world is growing more chaotic by the hour. Yet chaos isn't merely some random force that affects everyone the same. It actually comes against each of us in unique, targeted ways. It's goal is to shake us up and leave us fearful, empty, and void. Our past responses to avoid chaos or to wait it out haven't worked-and never will-because we're dealing with an ancient force that takes modern forms. And it has a special hatred for the Creator, creation, and any creativity that carries an eternal spark. The reason it feels like the very things that bring you life are under attack...is because they are.But we have a choice. We don't have to let the chaos around us within us. God offers a far better way to overcome what overwhelms us. Rather than focus on the latest global crisis or outbreak of chaos, this book provides a timeless approach for living in these crazy times. Through Scripture and story, you'll discover the origin of chaos, why it moves against life, beauty, and order, how God responds to chaos, and how we can counter chaos in counterintuitive ways that involve our presence and creativity. In this moment, chaos can do some real damage. But it can't overpower God. It can't defeat good. It can't overcome you. And it can't ultimately win. Chaos can't. But you can experience breakthrough over chaos and all the ways it has tried to defeat you...once you understand what's really going on.
