Book Synopsis
Everyone goes through moments when they experience lows emotionally or spiritually. Athletes, teams, businesses, students, writers, artists and couples in marriage all go through times when they lose their confidence, feel stuck or cannot figure out how to move forward. Moments like these are called slumps. People of every background go through slumps at one time or another in their lives, but those who know the benefits God provides have a resource like no other. God provides a resource for every season of life that makes all the difference when walking through pain, loss, disappointment, confusion or deep sadness. This resource is not happiness, which is a fickle emotion. God provides joy!
Joy is the reality that you are secure in God's favor without the measure of your effort. In other words, joy is the product of God's grace. Knowing that God loves you infinitely without the standard of your goodness or deeds frees you to live confidently before the Lord. You know that you can trust the Lord with every moment of your life, and in that trust, you know the pain, loss, suffering, disappointment or deep sadness is met with the care of One who stands with you, carries you and works all things out for your good. The joy of the Lord causes you to bless the Lord for all his benefits. Un-Slumping is about discovering God's presence and provisions that allow us to experience joy in every season of life.
In Un-Slumping: Experiencing Joy in Every Season of Life, readers will:
- Consider the reasons for slumps and how they impact their life emotionally and spiritually;
- Discover the remedies that will help them get unstuck and
- Reflect on God's reminders to help them experience genuine joy no matter their circumstances.
The greatest lesson readers will discover in Un-Slumping is how to gain the right perspective even when the circumstances around them continue to be difficult.
