Presentation

Happiness is not automatic for men, not even for Christians, and many are confused. Happiness does not seem real and fades as soon as you think you have caught it. Life here is guaranteed with its vicissitudes!

I don't have a job, my kids are going bad, I'm worth nothing, etc.

Well, Christians, take heart! Happiness was not automatic for the apostle Paul either. He had to learn to be happy with his condition.

Thomas Watson examines this saying, and shows what is the nature of this true happiness, how to get and keep it, where to draw it, how to avoid pitfalls and counterfeits.

These very pastoral pages answer a multitude of questions that everyone is asking.

Le contentement est un don de Dieu

Quel bon livre!
Qu'il est trop souvent difficile de se contenter de ce que l'on possède.
Dans ce court bouquin, Thomas Watson nous expose les différents dangers de la convoitise et du mécontentement pour nous recentrer vers une vérité centrale des Écritures = Le contentement est un don de Dieu.
Dans ce livre, nous pouvons apprendre sur des sujets tel que: qu'est-ce que le contentement? Comment l'atteindre? Quels sont ses ennemis? Pourquoi le rechercher? Etc.
Comme à l'habitude, Thomas Watson écrit très bien, c'est définitivement un ouvrage qui se dévore. Je conseil fortement.
