Opis

Winsome Wisdom provides 366 meditations -- one for each day of the year. Each reading spotlights a thought for the day, amplified by a short reflection and concluding with an affirmation distilling the message into a single sentence with a positive application. Erdahl shares sage advice on a wide range of topics ranging from marriage to money, from science to sex, from writing to war. An excellent source of illustrations for speeches or sermons, this remarkable book is sure to appeal to anyone seeking to be nourished by generous helpings of spiritual guidance and practical experience. "Winsome Wisdom is a modern-day Poor Richard's Almanack, full of Ben Franklin-style proverbs complete with brief commentary. Erdahl's ethics and values are apparent in his thoughtful comments. This book is perfect for people with busy lives who want to set aside a few minutes for daily meditation or prayer." --John Marty
