Why Not (For Real) Cheer Up?
from The Pocket Contemplative · host Dave Schmelzer
Jesus and Paul join contemplatives, neuroscientists and pop spirituality teachers in agreeing on one thing: your life is quite a bit better than you think it is. But sadly you, like all people, have a built in bias towards negativity. Overcoming this is the road to what Jesus called "faith." Join Dave Schmelzer for an encouraging look at the good things about to come your way. Mentioned on this podcast: "Every Praise" by Hezekiah Walker "Love Theory" by Kirk Franklin Hardwiring Happiness, by Rick Hanson Matthew 6:28-30“And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these.”
