Paul counters the false expectation of ’prosperity theology’ by giving his readers A Strategy for Living and The Antidote to Self-pity to enable them to be Master of Every Situation.

Yet we also recognized that the change we need is often hard to achieve. Change is ...read more

He led the armies of the North to victory in the Civil War, and was twice elected president of the United States. He ...read more
