With his signature engaging style and straightforward wisdom, Craig
Groeschel--New York Times bestselling author, pastor, and
counselor--delivers a powerful guide to breaking free of destructive
thought patterns and renewing our minds for a bright and purposeful
future.
Are your thoughts out of control--just like your life? Do you long to
break free from the spiral of destructive thinking? Let God's truth
become your battle plan to win the war in your mind!
We've all tried to think our way out of bad habits and unhealthy
thought patterns, only to find ourselves stuck with an out-of-control
mind and off-track daily life. Pastor and New York Times bestselling
author Craig Groeschel understands deeply this daily battle against
self-doubt and negative thinking, and in this powerful new book he
reveals the strategies he's discovered to change your mind and your
life for the long-term.
Drawing upon Scripture and the latest findings of brain science,
Groeschel lays out four practical and transformative strategies that
will enable you to change your thinking and transform your life:
- Remove the lies you believe and replace them with truth
- Rewire your brain and learn exercises to renew your mind
- Reframe your mind and restore a healthy perspective
- Revive your soul through prayer and praise and reclaim your
life
God has something better for your life than your old ways of thinking.
It's time to change your mind so God can change your life.
An invitation to an ordinary yet radical way of life, using
historic Christian practices as both inspiring vision and practical
instruction for how to encounter the wondrous, mysterious, living
God through prayer. Prayer is the source of Jesus's most
astonishing miracles and the subject of Jesus's most audacious
promises, and yet, most people--even most Bible-believing
Christians--find prayer to be boring, obligatory, disappointing,
confusing, or, most often, all of the above. If you've ever felt
this way, Praying Like Monks, Living Like Fools is your invitation
to trade your conceptions and misconceptions about prayer for
prayer in its purest form: a vital, sustaining, powerful connection
with God that is more real and alive than you could have ever
imagined. In these pages, Tyler Staton--author, pastor, and
national director of the 24/7 Prayer movement--addresses common
roadblocks to prayer and gives you the confidence to come to God
just as you are. Through biblical teaching, powerful storytelling,
and insights on historic Christian practices, Staton helps you . .
. Express your doubts and disappointments about prayer Discover and
practice multiple postures of prayer, including silence,
persistence, confession, and more Understand and embrace the wonder
and mystery of prayer in everyday life Realize that prayer is a
powerful invitation to partner with God in the redemption of a
fallen world And, ultimately, open or reopen the line of
communication with your Creator and experience afresh his divine
power on earth
