Overview

Borrowing from scriptural passages, exercises, and her own experiences with a stroke, Leavell has created a model for others to follow.

Synopsis

Joy in the Journey is her story of how she recovered the joy and how, when emergencies strike, one should be prepared to maintain the joy in light of despair. This invigorating book recounts the influences that led to her depression and how you can spot these influences before they strike. Borrowing from scriptural passages, exercises, and her own experiences, she has created a model for others to follow in overcoming their own personal setbacks and reclaiming their faith.
