Spiritual Foundations

When you have problems – be glad!

“My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.” James 1:2-4

Even science backs up Scripture…

“Being thankful and positive has great effects on the brain & immune system! Remember, your attitude affects you, not just those around you!”
Dr. Caroline Leaf
