Description

If you've ever questioned the value of your life or wondered what is the special something you give to the world, then Joe Alff's inspiring book, JOE'S GIFT, is the book for you. Continuing the theme found in his earlier book, THE SECRET TO LIVING A MORE FULFILLED LIFE, and drawing on forty years experience as a psychiatric counselor, the author reveals the narrow world most people live in, and how that most misunderstood virtue, humility, is the key to opening our eyes, ears, hearts and minds to the wonders and joys the world has to offer. He challenges the popular notions that good fortune, self-affirmations, good deeds, and achievements will eradicate nagging self-doubts and feelings of inadequacy. He pinpoints the only thing that validates every person's worth: The gift which the author and everyone gives to and receives from the world. Gifts that are grounded in God love for us. This book is guaranteed to lift your spirits, enrich your relationships and widen your worldview. It prompts its readers to generously give their gift to the world, and to open and enjoy the gifts others are giving to them. Joseph Alff earned his Master of Social Work degree and has applied it to forty years as a group and individual psychiatric counselor. His clients have included children with behavioral problems, rebellious teens, as well as adults dealing with anxiety, depression, and various forms of psychosis. He has called upon these clinical experiences and his own life experiences as a husband, father, friend and Christian in the creation of this book.
