What Works When Life Doesn't

Practical Help From The Psalms For Times Of Unhappiness, World Chaos, Depression, Doubt, Fear, Guilt, Failure, Stress

Plot

You will discover--as Stuart Briscoe did--that the Psalms are much more than good reading before falling asleep...an ancient Hebrew hymnbook...beautiful poetry. The author has a rare gift for explaining the timeless truths of God's Word in fresh and insightful ways. He makes David's principles for overcoming the baffling problems of everyday living relevant to your living today. In this study of 12 selected Psalms, you will learn: How to overcome that horrible sinking feeling that comes when society's foundations of integrity...honesty...moral and ethical standards are being destroyed. How to cope with paralyzing fear that won't go away--when a wife wonders if she will be traded for a new model, when a child wonders whether his parents will stay together, when a man is unsure of his job, when a senior citizen wonders how he can afford the luxury of living. How to forgive the boss who does not understand you, the church that didn't measure up to your expectations, the spouse who hurt you, the kids who disgraced you, the fellow believer who is unkind to you. David learned to cope with the pressures of living. So can you.
