For many, anxiety is a powerful giant that would like you to believe that your life will never be normal again. A giant that traps you in darkness and defeat. But, you can live free from anxiety.
Knowing first-hand the reality of the battle of anxiety, pastor Louie Giglio shares both practical and spiritual ways to walk in freedom. With encouragement and hope he unfolds the truth in the paradox that anxiety is dead but still deadly—namely, that while the reality of anxiety might be intimidating, there is One whose power has already won the battle.
Putting an X Through Anxiety will show you how to put an "X" through your anxiety using the strongest of weapons: the cross of Jesus. Each day of the journey will help you put one foot forward in the battle, breaking through strongholds where Jesus has already fought for you and won.
Our lives are driven by a fact that most of us can't name and don't
understand. It defines who our friends and lovers are, which careers we
choose, and whether we blush when we're embarrassed.
That fact is whether we're an introvert or an extrovert.
The most fundamental dimension of personality, at least a third of us
are introverts, and yet shyness, sensitivity and seriousness are often
seen as a negative. Some of the world's most talented people are
introverts - without them we wouldn't have the Apple computer, the
theory of relativity and Van Gogh's sunflowers. In Quiet, Susan Cain
shows how society misunderstands and undervalues introverts while
giving them the tools to better understand themselves and take full
advantage of their strengths.
Passionately argued, superbly researched, and filled with real stories,
whether an introvert or extrovert, this book will change how you see
human beings for good.
Take back your power, heal toxic relationships, and harness the energy of your thoughts. Too many of us feel stuck, trapped in relationships, and weighed down by past trauma. We might be quick to judge and slow to pardon, and self-righteous about our feelings as we dwell on memories of what we or others did (or failed to do). With this book, New York Times best-selling author and spiritual leader Iyanla Vanzant challenges us to embrace the new power of forgiveness. With Iyanla’s 21-Day Forgiveness Plan, you’ll explore relationship dynamics with your parents, children, friends, partners, yourself, and even God. Through journaling work and Emotional Freedom Techniques (also known as “tapping”), you’ll learn to see yourself, your life, your every experience, and every person in your life from a different perspective. The free audio download that accompanies this book contains personal guidance from Iyanla on the Forgiveness Process, supportive meditations, and 18 daily prayers. Whatever challenges you face, forgiveness is the key to change. Forgiveness doesn’t mean agreeing with, condoning, or even liking what has happened. It means letting go and knowing that everything is just as it needs to be in order for you to grow and learn. Releasing the past restores you to the full energy of the present moment so that you can live with more love, gain clarity on your life’s lessons and blessings, and discover a new level of personal freedom, peace, and well-being. If you are ready to stop feeling bad, stop being wounded, and stop giving yourself reasons and excuses to be, do, and have less than you desire . . . It's time to forgive everyone for everything!
