Life is full of everyday setbacks. In The Art of Overcoming, you will learn how to process these moments and triumphantly move beyond them.
The Art of Overcoming explores how we deal with loss, grief, and hurt, and challenges readers to keep what looks like endings from discouraging or derailing us. The pain we experience is real-but there's a difference between acknowledging it and giving into it.
Rather than seeking a fake hope that pretends loss doesn't exist or doesn't matter, author and pastor Tim Timberlake encourages us to pursue hope rooted in God and gives this reminder: don't quit! The process of overcoming is not about understanding everything or living without pain, but about finding healthy ways to process the scary, strange, and sometimes devastating circumstances we face.
The Art of Overcoming is divided into four parts, using the imagery of a traditional funeral ceremony as a framework to process the 'death experiences' we face regularly in this crazy journey called life:
- A Matter of Life and Death explores five foundational perspectives about grief and loss
- The Processional encourages us to face head-on the reality of our experiences
- The Eulogy helps us memorialize and honor what has been lost and how to process grief in a healthy way
- The Recessional is about closure as we discover life after death and move forward
No matter what you've gone through or are in the middle of right now, better days are ahead. Let God heal your heart in His timing, take time to grieve what needs to be grieved, and then celebrate the new life God lays out before you.

A thirty-day story-driven manual to celebrate the importance and blessing of each of the 1,440 minutes we are given every day, written by an up-and-coming lead pastor of a global church.
The son of a preacher, eighteen-year-old Tim Timberlake's tragic and painful personal story of the sudden loss of his father began his journey toward seeing the benefit and blessing of each day. And not just to get through it, but to exhaust every opportunity of potential of that day, moment by moment, fulfilling his God-given purpose.
Today Pastor Tim inspires others to approach each day with its 1,440 minutes in a way that they live out their own God-given purposes and passions. Comprised of thirty bite-size chapters, The Power of 1440 is a day-by-day manual to help listeners deal with topics like forgiveness, perspective, mistakes, rest, and living a life that matters. He says, "Win some, learn some . . . but never lose."
Every day should be magnificent, not mundane; filled with delight, not drudgery; and a grand adventure, not a grind. It is possible to make today and every day truly remarkable.
