40 Days of Encouragement is a Christian devotional containing forty devotional readings that define and illustrate Biblical encouragement. The devotionals teach Biblical principles using both historical and contemporary illustrations and stories. Each devotional begins with an appropriate Bible passage introducing the theme for each of the forty days. Some of the themes included are: *Gods care and love for His children *Learning how to enjoy the Lords good gifts * How to find and enjoy Gods forgiveness * Dealing with daily anxieties *Claiming Gods wonderful promises *Spiritual refreshment *The Lords mighty protection *Our self-image in Christ *Rewards This book is designed for both personal and family devotions, and for group studies. After each devotional, six additional Bible passages are given with exploratory questions to study and/or discuss with others. The devotionals with their corresponding passages create a perfect forty day spiritual retreat for individuals, groups, or even as a church-wide 40 Days of Encouragement event. The materials could also be used as lessons for a forty week Sunday School class or as preaching tool for pastors developing a year long emphasis on the theme of Biblical encouragement.
