| Résumé : |
Taming Tension is filled with suggestions for living a calm, healthful, and joyous life. W. Phillip Keller writes in simple, straightforward language—his message is practical, plain, and, above all, effective. Keller’s approach is to the whole person—he treats the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual sides of life. For a life free from tension, he explains the benefits of outdoor living—even for the city dweller, and convincingly discusses the importance of disciplined thinking, knowing God, and having faith.
W. Phillip Keller speaks from experience. Shunted from school to school, his childhood environment was permeated with anxieties. As a young man the author was wracked by illness, including tropical dysentery, rickets, and malaria. At thirty-five, he was given but six months to live. Now, over twenty-three years later, Keller is enjoying life as a fit, contented man. His prescription for good health did not come from a doctor. Rather, it resulted from mastering the tension that had persistently plagued him. The key to his contentment is his profound and vital faith in Jesus Christ, to which he winsomely testifies throughout this book. |
