Adapted from the dissertation entitled, Phenomenological Study of Encouragement as a Protective Factor for New Christian Pastors, this book gives clarity in laymen’s terms on how vital encouragement is to one’s well-being. It is a condensed discovery of how encouragement can be a protective factor or the thing that safeguards one from the stressors encountered. This protective factor through encouragement distinguishes those who seem to adapt to circumstances or overcome adversities and those who merely give up. Encouragement helps one see others and circumstances through the eyes of faith and is a key factor in empowerment, fulfillment, inspiration, transformation, and success.
