Publisher's summary

Living Well: 10 Big Ideas of Faith and a Meaningful Life encourages readers to draw on their faith to build a meaningful life based on 10 Big Ideas found in the scriptures. True stories illustrate these time-tested principles of humility, courage, generosity, gratitude, hope, forgiveness, rest, self-control, joy, and love. Short chapters, inspirational stories, and scientific evidence along with end-of-chapter-questions make this an ideal book for group study or personal growth. In addition, group leaders will find links to additional resources to enhance any discussion. ***** “As a Christian and a psychological professional, it’s rare to find resources which address the interaction of my beliefs and scholarly knowledge. I’m encouraged by Geoff Sutton’s, Living Well, as it offers a unique perspective on Biblical virtues from multiple, complementary views. In a time where many want to divide faith and science, a harmonious combination is found in this book.” —Chelsea L. Greer, Ph.D., Assistant Professor, Counseling Psychologist, USA ***** “In the long and noble tradition of virtue ethics, Geoffrey Sutton provides a valuable resource for living the good life. Bible study meets scientific inquiry meets practical how-to, this is a helpful tool for congregation and classroom alike.” —Dr. Howard N. Kenyon Vice President, Ecumenical Ministries of Oregon, USA ***** “Overtime we all go through life altering and changing events that can ‘make us or break us,’ Geoff Sutton, in his new book ‘Living Well,’ explores and highlights to us not only as Christians but as part of a wider society of humans, how we are all part of a community and it is through this ‘community’ that we should put our faith into action. I fully recommend ‘Living Well…” —Anita M. Eader, M.A., B.S., United Kingdom ***** “I highly recommend Geoff Sutton’s latest book. As the discipleship pastor at my church, I think this resource would be beneficial for our small groups to use. The abundance of resources included under each virtue—from TEDtalks to Scripture passages to poetry/music to helpful questionnaires—provide so much meat for further study and discussion.” —Jodi Faulkner, Associate Pastor (PhD student, Intercultural Studies), USA
