Product Description

Many years ago, Paul, an apostle of Christ, wrote a letter to the believers in Jerusalem. In his letter to them, he reminded them of faithful servants of God as far back as Abel to their time. He reminded them of how these, although, were far off from the fulfillment of God's promise, exercised faith, persevered and endured pains, trials, and injustices of various sorts for the sake of the joy that was set before them. Why was this reminder important since the Jews were already familiar with the stories of the men and women of faith of the past? It was so that they may realize that they were not alone in whatever difficulties and pains that they might be going through and that by considering the lives of the people of former times, they may have courage, hope and endurance to run the race of life that is set before them freeing themselves from every weight and the sin that clings so closely to them. People of the first century to whom Paul wrote needed the encouragement, comfort and practical lessons that comes from considering the things written about men and women of the past, how much more do we need this sort of encouragement, we who are living at the time which the Bible called the perilous times of the last days? (2 Timothy 3:1)It is for this reason that this book series is written to be a source of comfort for those that are faint at hearted and to support those whose emotional strengths are giving out. (1 Thessalonians 5:14)The first book of this series is based on Solomon: how everyone depressed today can draw comfort from the life and words of wisdom of a man who although had unmatchable material possession in his days, finds not the sort of happiness he had expected to find by acquiring riches; a man who in his God-given wisdom found no point in the way things were in the world and so sought the purpose and meaning of life; a man who had many marital relationships with lovers who shared not his beliefs or his language and had to deal with them for as long as his lived till succumbing to pressure from them in opposition to the source of his livelihood.The book details Solomon's depression, what he found in his search for the meaning of life, why we can believe that he really lived, how his life and words of wisdom provides comfort for anyone depressed today and how the practical advice found in his words of wisdom can help anyone depressed in coping with and managing depression in our day.
