The Struggles Within

Dynamic Evangelist Highlights the Need to Fill Spiritual Void

Author and pastor Egypt McKee implores his readership to examine life's purposes in his new book, "life. the struggle within" (published by AuthorHouse - http://www.authorhouse.com).

Men, women and young people alike, regardless of race, culture, creed or religion, will benefit from McKee's guided journey into self-reflection. Step by step, he encourages readers to examine how they view themselves, how they view others and how others view them, and how they view God and how God views them. Each chapter concludes with applicable Scripture references and probing questions such as, "What habits do you use in hiding your insecurities, and why?" and "What's holding you back from doing the right thing by trusting Jesus Christ with your life today?"

McKee attests that as a society " ... we find ourselves running a violent race to be better, own more things and discard that for which we have little or no understanding," and that doing so will not placate the restlessness that we struggle against nor will it fill the void within each of us that can only be filled by spiritual food. "Only a deliberate relationship with Jesus Christ will fill the void in your life," he continues.

The basis of his book is hinged upon a biblical worldview, one which he advocates will encourage readers to transcend their struggles by cultivating genuine hope and faith in their everyday lives. It addresses the intricacies of our relationships with others in a straightforward, and at times humorous, way as evidenced by the chapter titles "Your Momma Wears Combat Boots" and "Porn-Again Loser."
