What if you could change your thoughts? The negative ones: *That makes you question your faith *That keeps you from enjoying the fullness of God's peace, hope, and joy, *That depletes the spiritual pantry of all the good things God has in store for you You work hard. You do your best to live by faith and care for those around you. But when you're living in the "in-between times"--when the natural order of life becomes stressful and wears you down--it can be a challenge to maintain an optimistic outlook each day. If you've felt this way, you're not alone. God's people today--and in Jesus' time--grappled with negative thoughts and circumstances, but faith-inspired answers helped them overcome such thinking. You, too, can overcome negative thinking and turn your "negatives" into "positives." Join the author's journey as she takes you through personal experience stories--hers and others (including scenarios of Biblical characters)--and how each found optimism through God's goodness and Word. Just One Good Thing (A Faith-Inspired Recipe for Optimism) will guide you on a 28-day, three-step "recipe" to defeat negativity and face each day with a renewed outlook and faith. Questions for study and self-reflection and a journal application are included. >

Each beautifully illustrated animal includes details to help clarify its meaning for children, important cultural information, and connections between the historic world of the Bible and our world today! God once told Job that animals are important to Him, and that they are a big part of His creation. God watches when the doe gives birth to her fawn. He makes the leopard swift to hunt its prey. He commands eagles to soar. Animals are important to God. He loves them and cares for them, and wants us to do the same. Many of the animals mentioned in the Bible are featured in 44 Animals of the Bible.
