'Hardy' individuals handle life's stresses better, say psychology. 'Faith-hardy Christians' face problems confidently because thay believe Christ is present to turn problems into possibilities. Taking a wholistic approach, the author uses pyschological insights and tools, including the Myers-Briggs psychological types and the spiritual resources of the gospel, prayer, devotional life, worship, and Holy Communion. Topics include how to find a balance between controlling and letting go, how to handle conflict, and how to lose with grace.
