Take Back Your Joy
$17.99
Have you ever been devastated by a traumatic experience and wondered, Where is God in all of this? Whatever joy you may have had seems long gone and shows no hope of returning.
You’re not alone.
In Take Back Your Joy, Nicole Jacobsmeyer tells how she felt defeated and ill-prepared for a decade of relentless trials, from assault and depression to miscarriage and cancer.
With a heart full of questions about the God she was raised to love, Nicole began to doubt.
Had God given her more than she could handle?
But there is always more to the story with Christ.
Through trial after trial, Nicole allowed God to strengthen her faith, and now she shares biblical strategies that carried her through:
*Stay grounded in God’s Word
*Serve others
*Choose forgiveness
*Give up control
Take Back Your Joy gives readers a renewed sense of hope and reassurance that we’re not alone in our sufferings, doubts, and questions. We can discover a clear sense of purpose even in hard times.

And Yet : Finding Joy In Lament
$12.00In a life full of highs and lows, choice and challenges, the words ‘and yet’ can change everything. We are surrounded by darkness and yet there is light. We feel we are lacking and yet God provides. We are broken and bruised and yet there is hope.
In the depths of depression and plagued with suicidal thoughts, Rachael Newham never thought she’d find herself writing a book on joy. And yet, if her journey with mental health illness has taught her anything it is that true, deep, lasting joy can only be experienced when we allow ourselves to enter into lament and be honest about our pain before God.
With warm understanding, in this lovely Lent book for 2022 Rachael traces how Biblical writers used ‘and yet’ to bring together joy and lament and invites us to see them not as opposites, but two sides of the same coin. Drawing on her experiences with mental illness, she shows us how we can build a rhythm of both joy and lament into our lives both through the season of Lent and the rest of the church’s year.With forty reflections split over six sections And Yet is the perfect daily Lent devotional for 2022, but its undated readings can be used for periods of prayerful reflection throughout the year. This is a beautiful Christian book on lament ideal for anyone looking for to better understand how the tradition of lament and joy work together, and how they can make them a part of their everyday spiritual formation.
We may be living in dark circumstances – and yet with a few simple practices we can experience joy in every season.
