Book Review of You Gotta Keep Dancin'

You Gotta Keep Dancin'


YOU CAN CHOOSE JOY!

Life can be tough. Stress, disappointment, heartache, hurt--all are part of the human condition. but while pain is unavoidable, misery is optional! The freeing message of You Gotta Keep Dancin is that, no matter what your circumstances, you can choose to be joyful.

Tim Hansel speaks as one who knows. For the past ten years he has lived with continual physical pain, the result of a climbing mishap in the Sierras. But You Gotta Keep Dancin is not just another story of a Chrisitan who had an accident. It is a powerful account of God's working one man's physical and emotional suffering, helping him discover the real meaning of joy.

Tim doesn't treat lightly the difficulties of anyones life. In his words, "this book is in no way meant to diminish the awfulness of pain, tragedy, and affliction. I don't want to celebrate pain, but more deeply understand the dignity of what can happen in it, through it, and because of it."
