Where is God in the midst of your pain? What happens when youre too tired and exhausted to pray? Whatever youre going through (the death of a loved one, an illness, a divorce, etc.), its comforting to know that youre not alone. Niki Hardy has been through the valley of the shadow of death and eloquently unfolds her powerful story with raw, vulnerable honesty that cuts to the heart of the human condition. I would recommend this book to anyone going through a health crisis and to anyone struggling with the issue of real, active faith in the midst of a silent, raging tempest.

Filled with life-giving hope, practical help, and the perfect blend of real-life humor we need when life falls apart! This book holds the truth we need and the companionship of the friend we want to walk through days that leave us gasping for air and seasons that make us wonder how well ever survive. Through the death of loved ones, her own battle with cancer, and one hard thing after another, Niki asked God tough questions and fought to find the answers we all need. I highly recommend Break Free from Survival Mode ! Im getting a copy to keep and a few to give away, and you should too!

Niki Hardy is the voice you need to hear when life goes the opposite of what you imagined. Im buying Break Free from Survival Mode in bulk to stock our arsenal of books that we keep around to give away to friends and family. This book is a gift.

This is a gem of a bookjust as its author is a gem of a person. Niki is vulnerable and real about pain and suffering, whether her own or others, but she doesnt leave us there. She points us back to God and gives us spiritual encouragement and some down-to-earth practices that we can engage in if we want to thrive and not just survive the tough times. A must-read for anyone who feels they are in a pit of any kind right nowor anyone who ever has been or will be, which just about covers us all, I think.

My friend Niki knows firsthand what its like to feel like everything is falling apart, and somehow, in the midst of it all, draw closer to God. Niki leads us on a journey that will take each one of us straight to the feet of Jesus. And she does it with stunning vulnerability, biblical truth, and even humor. (Reading along, I couldnt help but laugh as I imagined her, with her British accent, talking about her bum, the loo, and rubbish.) I would recommend this beautiful book to anyone who doesnt simply want to survive but to rise up and thrive.
