The Next Thing

Starting with the worst day of his life, Cecil Taylor takes readers on a journey through various crises in order to introduce the concept of “The Next Thing” and a four-part model for addressing each crisis.

Cecil explains how we can control our response to crisis while leaving the outcome of the crisis in God's hands. He offers the scriptural underpinning for simplifying, trusting, resting and grieving in response to crisis. He shows how crisis fundamentally changes us and how his model helps us get through “The Next Thing” and be prepared for whatever “Next Thing” may follow.

To feel less stress and more control during a crisis, read this book. It will show you how to partner with God during your “Next Thing.”

“Using his real-life experiences, Cecil Taylor shares his coping mechanisms to guide readers through their own difficult times. If you're hurting, facing hardships or in need of direction, use The Next Thing as your strategy to prevail when a crisis appears.” – Greg Hasty, author of I’m a Nobody (But Not to God)

“The Next Thing could be one of the essential books in your life that you go back to time after time when crises overwhelm you. Our family has dealt with crisis after crisis all through our lives. Most recently we lost our special needs daughter at the young age of 25. This book is an easy read, based on practical experiences, and Biblically supported. I intend to reread multiple times and will share it with others as they deal with their own crises.” – Pat Warren.
