A Daily Dose of Godly Encouragement

What are your boundaries? How do you practice your faith? If someone were to describe your walk with God, what would they say? We live in turbulent times, full of tough days. At times we may feel frustrated, overwhelmed, and disconnected from each other and from God. We may wonder if Christ has anything to teach us as we face difficulties ahead.

This is a book of stories that will hopefully provide encouragement to face those tough days before you. There is the church that rose from the ashes of a horrible fire. There is Grandpa teaching valuable lessons while fishing. There is a Prayer, Care, Share 60 Day prayer challenge. There is even a shopping experience in Paris.

Paul once gave this advice to a young preacher named Timothy: "Do not waste time arguing over godless ideas and old wives' tales. Spend your time and energy in training yourself for spiritual fitness. Physical exercise has some value, but spiritual exercise is much more important, for it promises a reward in both this life and the next. This is true, and everyone should accept it." (1Timothy 4:7-9)

According to Paul, everyone should be "training for spiritual fitness." How are you doing? "A Daily Dose of Godly Encouragement: Medicine for Tough Days" represents a summation of my attempts over the past thirty years to plant God's seeds of encouragement and hope within you. This book, "Spring" represents April through June of a year-long opportunity to provide meaningful and transforming daily medicine.
