Some words belong together. But what about these? "Christian." "Non-fiction." "Time travel!" Is that surprising? Christians should engage in mental time travel each day. Their minds should travel back to the cross of Jesus which should, impact their choices today. Then, their minds should travel forward to the return of Jesus and have increased hope! That is biblical meditation, thinking about God's truths and then living a hope-filled life. But what happens when we do it wrong--time-traveling in fearful, worried ways to the terrible future we can imagine? Or what if readers fail to time-travel to the future to be alert? They may even live an undisciplined life today because they do not meditate on their tomorrows enough! This book is more than just a book--it's a biblical time-travel guide. It connects readers' daily experiences with how God wants them to think about their past and future. Readers will be surprised how many of their struggles are linked to their time travel skills. What a victorious life awaits as readers learn to enjoy transformative time travel!
