Embracing the DarknessXulon Press, 2004 - 252 pagini King David thanked God for his afflictions because they taught him God?s truths. Similarly, the Apostle Paul confessed that he had learned to trust God through his afflictions. Although God can take depression and other forms of suffering away, He often uses them to produce His best fruit. This book will help us to embrace God?s work and to dance in step with it. The way we think about God largely determines how we feel about Him. While an incorrect understanding will mar our sense of intimacy with Him, a Biblical understanding of God provides fertile soil for growth through pain and depression. These principles are vividly demonstrated through the author?s various missteps as God brought him out of a dungeon of dysfunction. The final section of the book contrasts the Biblical perspective with secular theory and practice. Embracing the Darkness is largely based upon the seminar, ?Biblical Principles for Handling Depression and Despair.? |
