Are you hurting right now? Is someone in your life going through heartache, and you don't know what to say to make it better? If so, please consider giving them a copy of enCOURAGEment from Charles Spurgeon. The beautiful thing about this book is that people will actually read it--the forty short devotionals make for a small, unintimidating book, and they are written in easy conversational language that everyone can understand. This is especially important for the newer Christian who isn't highly educated in the Bible yet. And more importantly, when someone is mired in anguish or despair, they're much more receptive to encouragement that's being expressed in their own thought-language. And at the same time, you know you can trust the advice, coming from Charles Spurgeon, one of the most beloved pastors in modern history. Help your friends and loved ones understand why they are going through troubles and trials, and find the hope and COURAGE to keep going!

From the back cover:
You hear it called by many different names: testing, trials, discipline, trouble, difficulty, heartache... It can take many forms: the loss of a job, the breakup of a marriage, financial ruin, injury, sickness, and death. What do you say to somebody going through these things? Is there any answer you can give to someone asking the question, "Why me?" Is there any way that you can help someone find the strength and motivation to make it through the toughest time in their life?

If this applies to you or somebody you know, we simply know of no one better at explaining things than Charles Spurgeon. In these 40 simple readings, Pastor Spurgeon will help you to:

-See God's purpose and provision in your suffering
-Look to God's Word for comfort, consolation, and contentment
