Bright Hope e-bog

Hope is not an attitude--it's a way of life. Therapist Ted Brackman, a colleague of Jim Wallis in the early Sojourners community, mines psychological, theological, and sociological insights in this practical and compassionate guide for "e;living well while ill."e;Ted's work was deepened by his eleven years with pancreatic cancer (after a nine-month prognosis). He developed and lived out a way of life animated by hope in the transcendent reality of God's future coming to us in the present. In his writing, he is an honest, inspiring companion:- for those who struggle to face the next hour with courage and strength. - for those who feel defeated and need a new way forward that reframes the present. - for caregivers and advocates who need new tools for replenishing both internal and external resources. - for communities of faith seeking to bring change to, and empowering hope within, marginalized populations. For all those ready to find a new way of living when false hopes and distractions are stripped away, to learn how to build a foundation for personal, communal, and social thriving . . . Ted Brackman offers Bright Hope.
