PUYB Author Talks: ⭐A Bookish Conversation with 'The Beauty of Tribulation' J.A. Cox⭐ #TheBeautyofTribulation #interview

 

 

 

J.A. Cox is a husband, father and disabled veteran. He is passionate about Jesus Christ and has a desire to allow God to use his writing to bring glory to his name and reach others for him. His other passions lie in: 1) Empowering people by teaching about things that he is knowledgeable in in a simple and fun as well as interesting manner. 2)Inspiring others that they may realize how the true potential to overcome their perceived dilemma lies right between their ears and how they allow it to manipulate what their eyes behold. 3) Helping people to realize that being healthy truly begins with realizing how important it is for them to be intimately acquainted with their own body in order for others to help them resolve its maladies that beset it. Along with those, he enjoys entertaining with fiction based on the concept that fact is stranger than fiction and then stretching it just a tad to create some memorable page turning moments that you will likely recall for some time to come.

If self-published, did you hire someone to format the ebook version for you or did you do it yourself? Can you tell us what that's like? 

I had purchased a template from bookdesigntemplates.com and used it for my book.  After carefully reading and rereading the instructions I realized that it was very simple and the results were stunning.  It was well worth the investment and I highly recommend it for anyone serious about doing it themselves. 

How did you choose your cover?

I prayed about the cover and went with what God laid on my heart.

Did you write your book, then revise or revise as you went?

First I wrote the book and then I went back and revised it.

What are some of the most important things you believe an author should do before their book is released?

I would say that the most important thing would be to do their best to maximize exposure of themselves and their book. This would be especially so for their target audience.  Doing virtual book tours, press releases, social media and etc…

Do you have a long term plan with your book?

 I suppose my long term plan is to get my book into bookstores and libraries.

What would you like to say to your readers and fans about your book?

I hope that all who read its pages come away with a much deeper appreciation for the allowances that God makes for those painful moments in their lives.  I especially hope that many eyes will be opened, faith renewed and greatly increased once they have finished reading it.

 

Inside the Book

Title: The Beauty of Tribulation

Author: J.A. Cox

Publication Date: August 28, 2020

Pages: 98

Genre: Christian/Nonfiction

The Beauty of Tribulation was written to provide answers based upon scripture to help us understand things such as:

• The purpose of tribulation in the life of a believer.
• Reasons why it is necessary.
• How God uses it for our edification and his glory.
• How God is not the author of our tribulation.

At the root of it, the greatest purpose is to depict the beauty of our painful, frustrating, and most hopeless moments when we allow God to complete the work he is trying to accomplish through them. As you turn the pages of this book you will be taken on a journey that will delve you deep into the tribulation process and come away with a firm understanding of it, perhaps like never before. Every premise is backed with scripture, focused on what the bible says rather than my own ideas.

J.A. Cox hopes that all who read will walk away with a greater appreciation and devotion toward the Lord in regard to this troublesome subject and inevitable part of our lives.

PRAISE:

“…I think The Beauty of Tribulation will be relevant for Christians seeking a deeper understanding of their faith, as well as for those grappling with questions about the presence of evil in the world and the nature of divine justice. Cox’s approach which blends insightful queries, scriptural citations, and logical explanations, facilitates a comprehensive and engaging learning experience. The book encourages a connection to the experiences of Jesus and offers a perspective on suffering as a path to dignity and honor, both in heaven and on earth. Its insightful and reflective nature makes it a valuable read for people looking to deepen their understanding of Christian theology and the human experience within it.” – The Literary Titan
