    God's Rx For Discouragement

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Jan 1, 2001
    based on 176 ratings
     | 8,420 views

    Discouragement comes when we focus on the problem rather than God, on the wonders of God rather than the Word of God, on our inadequacies rather than God’s resources.

During the world wars the country seemed to come together in patriotic unity, but with the absence of war, and the influx of prosperity, we seemed to have lost ...read more

    Since truth exists we ought to seek the truth, tell the truth, live the truth, and share the truth with others.

Yet that doesn’t stop most of us from lying, does it? The 1992 book The Day America Told the Truth found that 91% of us lie ...read more

    The Bible consistently teaches that Christians are not only to be seen, but also to be heard. If we have the only message that shows how to get back to God, then God forbid we keep that message to ourselves!
