Description
What you’ll learn
1) Be Grateful
Trade cultural discontent for a posture of thanksgiving (Psalm 16:6). Learn simple practices that shift your attention from losses to God’s daily mercies.
Strength Training: Worship—re-center weekly with church, scripture, and praise.
2) Choose Joy
Joy isn’t circumstance; it’s a decision rooted in God’s goodness (Job 8:21). Discover how grieving and joy can coexist—and how your joyful presence lifts others.
Strength Training: Celebration—regularly engage places and practices where your heart comes alive.
3) Overflow with Hope
Hope, biblically, is confidence in God’s character (Romans 15:13). Learn to be so filled with joy and peace that hope spills over to the discouraged around you.
Strength Training: Prayer (A.C.T.S.)—Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving, Supplication.
4) Acknowledge God’s Presence
God doesn’t “show up”—He’s already there (Psalm 139:7–10). Cultivate everyday awareness of His nearness in commutes, meetings, celebrations, and grief.
Strength Training: Solitude—create quiet space to notice and rest in God.
5) Bring the Spirit of Christ
“Conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ” (Philippians 1:27). Practice humble, others-first presence that reminds people of Jesus.
Strength Training: Service to Others—love neighbors through tangible action.
