Get Your Hopes Up!: Expect Something Good to Happen to You Every Day

by Joyce Meyer

Overview

#1 New York Times bestselling author Joyce Meyer teaches readers how to transform their lives by tapping into the power of hope. One of the most powerful forces in the universe is hope -- the happy and confident anticipation that something good is going to happen. Regardless of where one is in life, it is impossible to live successfully and to the fullest without hope. With Get Your Hopes Up! Joyce will help readers achieve a lasting sense of hope, built on their faith in God. Hope is only as strong as its source. This book will help readers avoid misplacing their trust in unreliable things, and help them ground their hope steadfastly in God for limitless joy and possibilities for their lives. As Joyce explains, "Without hope in God, there isn't much you can do, but with Hope in God, there isn't much you can't do."

Editorial Reviews

05/15/2015
Meyer, of Joyce Meyer Ministries and author of Be Anxious for Nothing and dozens of other titles, is an apt representative of a certain strand of American Christianity: indubitably conservative but ebullient, upbeat, and focused on the cheerier components of the Christian message rather than more sobering issues such as self-examination or justice. The author is also immensely wealthy, profiting from book revenues and other compensations; her ministry is an industry. It is hard to dislike this stridently upbeat little book, with its emphasis on blessings and hope but also hard to be surprised that Meyer herself, like other proponents of the "prosperity gospel," is so chipper—she has so much to be happy about. VERDICT Meyer's dedicated readers will want this volume, but it is unlikely to interest a wider readership.
