Tests are imposing--they invade and challenge our comfort zones. Tests are necessary-they gauge our progress, help fortify our strengths, and provide opportunities for improvement. In The Next Text, Marios Ellinas draws from biblical insight and his diverse knowledge and experience to examine various concepts surrounding the subject of life's tests. Marios proposes that tests, though generally uncomfortable and even painful, can be beneficial to us; for they prove us at levels we have already attained and promote us to levels we are destined to reach.
