Encouragement: How words change lives

In Ephesians 4, Paul's vision of the church is where every single member “speaks the truth in love”.

However for many, our Sunday conversations rarely get past the weather, sport or what we did yesterday. And though there's nothing wrong with this, it's a bit of a pity. Especially when we are allowed—in fact, we're commanded—to speak God's life-transforming word and thereby encourage each other.

So what is ‘encouragement’ exactly? And how does it work? In Encouragement: How Words Change Lives, join Gordon Cheng as he explains what encouragement is and how all of us can make one simple and foundational contribution to church life by encouraging others.

This easy-to-read book is sprinkled with humour, insight and practical wisdom.
