  1. It’s actually sounds like a possible read. I like the six steps you shared from the book and I do believe God is able to help us heal from personal life issues. After all he is our healer. However I do know sometimes we need to walk out that healing through rehab. That’s why he gave man wisdom for this process.

      Yes, it is a good read. There needs to be the coupling of focusing on God and His forgiveness and grace, along with our own actions to change behavior and thought patterns. If you choose to read, I hope it blesses you! Thank you for stopping by! God bless!

      I really enjoyed it and appreciated the combined use of a 12-step program with faith and trust in God. I hope you enjoy it! God bless!

  3. So interesting! I hosted a pastor who often visits rehab centers. He runs an inner healing center and the rehab centers have begun to beg him to come because Jesus makes such a difference in the lives of the patients.

      Yes, so often therapy alone doesn’t work. But also, God without action on our part is not always good either. We need Him but are called to do our part. Thank you for sharing your experience. God bless!

  4. “what we believe about ourselves is largely based upon what we have been told about ourselves. ” This is such an important point. Sometimes we don’t even realize what we believe about ourselves . Self-discovery is healing in and of itself. This book sounds really great.

      Self-discovery is so important. Often times that is the journey I take with my therapy clients. Until they understand what they believe about themselves and where it came from or got rooted, they aren’t going to be able to move beyond it. Thank you for stopping by and sharing your insights. God bless!

  5. This sounds like a great book for anyone, not just people with a specific life area to overcome. I love the point that we can’t, but God can. So often we feel as if we’re failing, but it’s because we haven’t asked God to come in and help us! Thanks for this review!

      Yes! We can’t but God can was a point I appreciated a lot too. I can start out thinking, “I’ve got this – and very quickly I realize I absolutely do not!” But God!
