This Guide is short but powerful. It is a companion to Book 1 of An Encouragement Journey. The first six chapters combine principles of two chapters from Book 1. The last chapter, seven, stands alone. The Guide is designed for use by a small group that meets for seven weeks. The goal of each chapter is to stimulate discussion, build relationships, and shape scriptural understanding of the topic addressed. Each chapter gives a brief summary of what is written in Book 1, quotes a key Bible verse(s), has a story that illustrates the concepts being addressed, has a list of open-ended discussion questions, a model prayer, and how to apply the principles.

An Encouragement Journey A Small Group Study & Discussion Guide is based upon early Encouragements that I wrote and later updated. I wrote about many of the most difficult and controversial issues that face us all. AEJ doesn’t shy away from contentious topics. These disputes can be divisive, but they were always handled graciously. By nature I’m an optimistic person who does not look for a fight. I want to lift people up, to raise heads in dignity and self-respect. It may be idealistic but that’s me. What I say about a topic may be short, but it is always clear and thoughtful. Since my disability I have retired and spend a great deal of time studying scripture. I've become an expert. I’m disabled. I am confined to a wheelchair because I do not have a sense of balance. I’ve been through dozens of tests (ugh) but doctors cannot determine why this happened. Their “best” diagnosis is that I have cerebellar degeneration. I have a severe case of ataxia. This affliction started in 2000. It cut short my career in local and state government. I cannot drive. My speech is almost unintelligible. I type with one finger (even so, there are lots of mistakes). My eyes see double or motion. But despite these and many other limitations, I am not discouraged and I do not ask “why me?” I feel the same way that Job felt. I don’t understand the reason for my sickness, but I trust that God has my best interests in His heart.
