Stickman Theology is a unique approach to embracing our dependency on Christ. The analogies, tools, and examples given in these pages bring every believer's hidden struggles into the light. Terry offers us ways of sharing our deepest hurts and needs in a grace-based context of discipleship. You will learn concepts and tools that enable you to embrace your role as a struggling, striving, growing believer and to pull down the strongholds in your life.

This study is designed for those struggling with their strongholds. It is a study based on the participants' desire to have freedom in worship, balance in their theology, honesty about their weaknesses, and confidence in the sufficiency of Christ to redeem and sanctify (a continual process of spiritual,

emotional, and relational growth) all people, including themselves. To accomplish that goal, we will present tools and concepts designed to equip the believer in understanding and practicing a lifetime of struggling, striving, and growing. We will not present "easy answers" or "10-step techniques." Instead, we will lay a firm foundation upon which we can "hold firm to the hope of [our] redemption" and begin experiencing "the power to be called the children of God.
