Are you struggling with discouragement from the pressures of life – health issues, an unwanted divorce, a wayward child, a betrayal, or financial pressures that seem endless? Sometimes all you need is a friend who will tell you, \u201cI\u2019ve been there, done that, and got the t-shirt.\u201d You\u2019re going to make it! It is out of my personal experiences with trauma and a desire to encourage others that \u201cThe Gift of Encouragement\u201d was written. This short book is a 30-day devotional that honors the life-giving benefits of a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and the wisdom of the Bible. The format is easy to read, thought-provoking, and provides a prompt at the end of each devotional with space to jot down your thoughts and comments. This is your journey to encouragement. Would you give me the privilege of being your friend on this journey to the road of real encouragement and abundant living? God is for us and His desire is for us to thrive, not just survive. – Kimberly Bilips<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":25549,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"pmpro_default_level":"","_uag_custom_page_level_css":""},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[78,221],"product_tag":[80],"giftcard-category":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-25548","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-books","7":"product_cat-digital-books","8":"product_tag-ebook","9":"product_shipping_class-course-materials","10":"pmpro-has-access","12":"first","13":"instock","14":"downloadable","15":"virtual","16":"purchasable","17":"product-type-simple"},"uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/nehemiahecommunity.com\/store\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/The-Gift-of-Encouragement-Front-Cover.jpg",1181,1836,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/nehemiahecommunity.com\/store\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/The-Gift-of-Encouragement-Front-Cover-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/nehemiahecommunity.com\/store\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/The-Gift-of-Encouragement-Front-Cover-193x300.jpg",193,300,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/nehemiahecommunity.com\/store\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/The-Gift-of-Encouragement-Front-Cover-768x1194.jpg",640,995,true],"large":["https:\/\/nehemiahecommunity.com\/store\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/The-Gift-of-Encouragement-Front-Cover-659x1024.jpg",640,994,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/nehemiahecommunity.com\/store\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/The-Gift-of-Encouragement-Front-Cover-988x1536.jpg",988,1536,true],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/nehemiahecommunity.com\/store\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/The-Gift-of-Encouragement-Front-Cover.jpg",1181,1836,false],"post-thumbnail":["https:\/\/nehemiahecommunity.com\/store\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/The-Gift-of-Encouragement-Front-Cover-624x970.jpg",624,970,true],"gform-image-choice-sm":["https:\/\/nehemiahecommunity.com\/store\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/The-Gift-of-Encouragement-Front-Cover.jpg",193,300,false],"gform-image-choice-md":["https:\/\/nehemiahecommunity.com\/store\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/The-Gift-of-Encouragement-Front-Cover.jpg",257,400,false],"gform-image-choice-lg":["https:\/\/nehemiahecommunity.com\/store\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/The-Gift-of-Encouragement-Front-Cover.jpg",386,600,false],"woocommerce_thumbnail":["https:\/\/nehemiahecommunity.com\/store\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/The-Gift-of-Encouragement-Front-Cover-500x777.jpg",500,777,true],"woocommerce_single":["https:\/\/nehemiahecommunity.com\/store\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/The-Gift-of-Encouragement-Front-Cover-700x1088.jpg",700,1088,true],"woocommerce_gallery_thumbnail":["https:\/\/nehemiahecommunity.com\/store\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/The-Gift-of-Encouragement-Front-Cover-100x100.jpg",100,100,true]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"EC Admin","author_link":"https:\/\/nehemiahecommunity.com\/store\/author\/"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":"Are you struggling with discouragement from the pressures of life - health issues, an unwanted divorce, a wayward child, a betrayal, or financial pressures that seem endless?
