Notes

Encouragement is not circumstantial, its spiritual.

We overestimate people's need for our beliefs, knowledge, and wisdom. We undervalue someone else's need for our encouragement.

"You should do this" is powerful.

Some people are gifted in encouragement, everyone is called to be an encourager.

The key to beating back discouragement is to be an encourager

Encouragers live in Generosity

Encouragers act with Boldness

Encouragers see beyond where people are to what they could be
