The Complainer's Journal

The Complainer's Journal was written to encourage the reader to love one another with a dose of compassion that silences complaints about people or even situations. As Christians, we dehumanize people when we highlight only their flaws. By flipping assumed motives from negative to positive and trying to understand the hurts of others, we can restore their dignity and follow Jesus Christ's command to love one another.

Within the pages are life examples and soulful questions. Use them to identify the spiritual injuries that cause you to verbally bandage up your shortcomings in an attempt to protect yourself from humiliation or rejection. Excuses, complaints, criticisms, and perceived "ruts" are never a pain-free solution, yet we default to them for emotional coverage.

Through examining modern situations, the author's personal stories, and biblical examples that are presented with a sense of familiarity, humor, and wisdom, we can learn to love one another instead of habitually harming one another. We can forgive one another gracefully instead of complaining about one another consistently.

By the end of the book, you will see your value in the loving eyes of God in ways that allow you to see others through that same forgiving lens of love. Shake off old habits that consumed you before by surrendering all your concerns and complaints to our heavenly father.
