Every Scar a Treasure is a trove of wisdom--a book of learning from the bumps and bruises of life. Great understanding can arise from the ashes of failure, stumbling, and making mistakes, of which Dr. Wise is no stranger. Instead of lollipops and cotton candy luxury along our journey, we face real struggles of pain and hardship that mark us deeply. Will these scars remain memorials of past hurt, or will they become symbols of glorious growth garnered from difficult experiences? Every experience--every scar--can be turned into a treasure of personal insight that propels us to become better, stronger, and wiser. Drawn from the ruins of Dr. Wise's own experiences, each chapter contains precious wisdom and invaluable insight for your own journey through life: Learn what really matters to you. Practice the art of encouragement. Become the best you can be. Discover the power of love. Release the gift of forgiveness. Find God in unexpected places. Navigate feelings of lost hope. Remember forgotten virtues. Embrace the journey of life.
