For the Christian, however, contentment is something we must apply, work at, and make our own in every circumstance, because anxiety and frustration are not neutral behaviors.\\nIt is certainly easier to go with our natural impulses when times are very hard or even just \\\u0026quot;annoying,\\\u0026quot; but contentment is an important part of our Christian life. Even the apostle Paul had to \\\u0026quot;learn\\\u0026quot; contentment. So we shouldn't wonder why we're still in spiritual kindergarten—repeating the same lessons over and over again—if we haven't given ourselves to study contentment. Thankfully, every test God gives on contentment is open book (even the pop quizzes!). In Learning Contentment, Nancy Wilson looks to the Bible and Puritans like Jeremiah Burroughs, Samuel Rutherford, Thomas Watson, and Charles Spurgeon to help us develop the practical, spiritual strength and the perspective that comes from contentment's deep satisfaction with the will of God. This encouraging little book follows after Nancy Wilson's Virtuous: A Study for Ladies of Every Age. Learning Contentment includes concise explanations, application questions and assignments that will involve and challenge everyone, and lots of biblical wisdom for individuals and groups.\u0026quot;}\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #6fa8dc;\"\u003e\u003ca style=\"color: #6fa8dc; text-decoration: underline;\" title=\"The Clouds Ye So Much Dread Look Inside the Book\" href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0154\/4706\/4624\/files\/I-133.pdf?5588\"\u003eLook Inside the Book\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e or \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/canonpress.com\/app\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #2b00ff;\" mce-data-marked=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan mce-data-marked=\"1\"\u003eListen on Canon+\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"It's true that this book is about me. (It's hard to avoid that when writing stories from my own life.) But this is also a book about trials big and small—about cancer, about suffering, about death—and especially about the temptation to fear. Sounds like a real downer, I know. But let me assure you that, while these frightful things are the reason for this book, none of them is the point of this book. The real point is God Himself and the comfort that His fearful and afflicted children can find only by trusting Him.\" -Hannah K.

Each of these chapters—from dreading the birth of her first child, to living in unfamiliar and dangerous places, to facing the news that her son had been diagnosed with cancer—describes the stories through which Hannah K. Grieser has come to see that hard or uncertain circumstances, rather than being cause for doubt and dread, can instead become the unasked-for means that our loving Father uses to turn us toward Him and to show us His faithfulness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTold in Hannah's graceful yet punchy prose, the reflections in this powerful book will challenge readers to revisit their own hard times and see how God can take the storms that we most fear and turn them into downpours of blessings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can also purchase this as an audiobook here, on \u003ca title=\"The Clouds Ye So Much Dread on Audible\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.audible.com\/pd\/A-Serrated-Edge-A-Brief-Defense-of-Biblical-Satire-and-Trinitarian-Skylarking-Audiobook\/B07D9385RR?qid%3D1562178701%26sr%3D1-12%26pf_rd_p%3De81b7c27-6880-467a-b5a7-13cef5d729fe%26pf_rd_r%3D4NY941T4SQVHPRE8THD1%26ref%3Da_search_c3_lProduct_1_12\u0026amp;source=gmail\u0026amp;ust=1562266018989000\u0026amp;usg=AFQjCNHlwufl2BIUvNxEgG3714Uy6mIeow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.audible.com\/pd\/B07KYXB4XJ\/?source_code=AUDFPWS0223189MWT-BK-ACX0-135288\u0026amp;ref=acx_bty_BK_ACX0_135288_rh_us\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eaudible\u003c\/a\u003e,* on \u003ca data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.scribd.com\/audiobook\/407655342\/A-Serrated-Edge-A-Brief-Defense-of-Biblical-Satire-and-Trinitarian-Skylarking\u0026amp;source=gmail\u0026amp;ust=1562266018989000\u0026amp;usg=AFQjCNHkdcW8851hG_fe5TTlqF_Ayih21g\" href=\"https:\/\/www.scribd.com\/audiobook\/393914887\/The-Clouds-Ye-So-Much-Dread-Hard-Times-and-the-Kindness-of-God\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSCRIBD\u003c\/a\u003e, and wherever audiobooks are sold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e* All purchases made through this link will earn us a small commission through Amazon Associates, an affiliate program.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eWhat People Are Saying:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e\u003c!--\ntd {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}\n--\u003e\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-userformat='{\"2\":769,\"3\":{\"1\":0},\"11\":4,\"12\":0}' data-sheets-value=\"{\u0026quot;1\u0026quot;:2,\u0026quot;2\u0026quot;:\u0026quot;READER REVIEWS:\\n\\\u0026quot;Loved everything about this book.
