Seizing the Good Life, by Shellie Rushing Tomlinson

<p>Today, Roberta talks to Shellie Rushing Tomlinson about her new book Seizing the Good Life: Discover Peace and Joy through the Study of John's Gospel, available from Salem Books.</p><p>Living on high alert drains your energy and steals your joy. There is a better way and Seizing the Good Life will help you find it as it takes you through the Gospel of John.</p><p>If our chaotic culture has left you drained of joy, here's some good news: there is a way to get it back—and keep it.<br /> <br />Let’s face it. Joy is becoming as scarce in our culture as fresh eggs at the grocery store. Constant headlines about one catastrophe after another, along with living in a society bent on erasing God from our consciousness, can leave us stressed out and working hard just to get by—far from the good life of abundant joy Jesus promised us.<br /> <br />And yet, He did promise us that His yoke is easy and His burden is light. So how do we go about seizing the good life from the jaws of depression and hopelessness that threaten us now?<br /> <br />Shellie Rushing Tomlinson has walked this path and knows the way. With the Gospel according to John as her roadmap—and plenty of personal stories, insights, and a healthy dollop of humor for good measure—she can help you not only rediscover the peace and joy found in friendship with Jesus, the Lover of your soul, but maintain it over the long haul.<br /> <br />God never intended for you to hold on to a dry faith with chewed-up fingernails. You really can know peace and joy in the middle of our anxious and angry culture. A deep dive into this study will help you seize the good life once again.</p><p>Brought to you by Roberta Foster, KNEO Radio and the Sky High Podcast Network.</p>
