“Overcoming Disappointment, Frustration & Discouragement”  - [1 Kings 19:1-18; Hebrews 12:1-5,12-15] - Disappointments & frustrations are a part of life & becoming discouraged is something every Christian experiences. However, many times we attempt to deal with our negative feelings & experiences in superficial or temporary ways, (e.g., withdrawing from relationships, giving up prematurely, or even turning a blind eye to the problems we face, etc). These measures will eventually result only in more and more discouragement. – The cycle, if not properly dealt with, will continue until our faith is destroyed. We need to realize discouragement is a product of our own improper perspectives and inadequacies -  NOT merely our circumstances! This lesson examines what the Bible says about discouragement - - - Why do we become discouraged? What perspective is needed? What qualities & characteristics must I develop within myself?  What are some practical steps to take that will help guard our hearts from becoming discouraged? Is It Possible I Am The One Who Needs To Change? This is a lesson most all of us can benefit from – I pray that it is an encouragement to you. -  MP3  / PPT / KEYNOTE / PDF - 11/22/2015
