How to Stay Positive in a Negative World

CD Album


Description

If you haven’t noticed that we live in a negative world, you’re not paying attention. It seems most people would rather talk about a problem than offer a solution. They would rather complain than praise. The media thrives on controversy and tragedy. Watch the news, read the newspaper, or listen to the negative conversations of those around you long enough, and you’ll find yourself discouraged.

So how do you stay positive in the midst of this negative world? In this new series, Andrew addresses the subject head-on. You’ll learn how to rise above the noise of negativity and live your life according to the promises of God’s Word. It’s an uphill climb, but the view and the fresh air at the top are well worth the effort.
