My Peace I Leave You

Christ’s Comfort in the Storms of Life

Kristian Kincaid

“The Lord is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; He knows those who take refuge in Him.” (Nahum 1:7)

Take heart; you are never alone in your life struggles. Christ never abandons you. His love never fades or falters. Rather, Christ is always with you through all your struggles. This truth can be hard to see when life gets rough or things seem uncertain, yet during these times it’s more true than ever.

My Peace I Leave You by Kristian Kincaid shows you Christ’s everlasting love for you through 20 different struggles. Guilt. Personal difficulties. Doubt. Pride. Worry. Whether or not you’ve gone through or felt each of them, there’s certainly one that you’ve personally struggled with. Each chapter ends with a short prayer and Bible verse to help you reflect on the reading and points back to Christ helping you in daily life.

Praise for My Peace I Leave You:

“Having known Kristian Kincaid almost my entire pastoral ministry, I found this book to be everything I could have expected. He is a talented and thoughtful writer. His ability to capture situations and scenarios from his life as a pastor and then make them alive and real for the reader is unparalleled. Reading this book is like reading through a narration of Luther’s Small Catechism. Kincaid’s intro stories are captivating and never leave you hanging without resolution. His understanding of the Holy Scriptures reveals a pure Law/Gospel paradigm. The application of justification and sanctification is refreshing. This book will strengthen the faith life and the vocational life of every reader.”

Through the use of modern and biblical stories, Kincaid explores some of the common troubles we Christians face. He doesn’t hold back! In vivid language, he discusses the causes and the effects of these troubles. With the trouble clearly defined, Kincaid then delivers Jesus FOR YOU. The book provides the reader with Scripture passages and prayers to face the troubles of this life in and with the comfort that comes from Jesus Christ and Him alone. This book can be used devotionally or as a resource for counseling and visitation. The contents could easily be used for a congregational Bible study.
