The Joy of Encouragement

In The Joy of Encouragement, we are going to delve into Scripture so that we can build this critical attribute into our arsenal. The Bible shows us that encouragement is available in so many different places We can find it in solitude and in songs. We can find it in our marriages. We can find it in the church. And most of all, we can find it in the Gospel! After all, there is no more encouraging news than the knowledge that we have been reconciled to God by the work of Jesus Christ on the cross. And there is no shortage of places where we need to be vigilant encouragers. You will learn how you can easily and readily offer healing and life to those around you – your family, friends, neighbors, and even perfect strangers. With this book, you will learn how to redirect your life and look intentionally for encouragement. It helps you to experience joy and improve your relationship with others.
