The Power of Brokenness

Meaningful Change is Based upon Something Much Stronger than Our Own Self-Will...
When we make the decision to change, we often do it because we are sick and tired of the life that we have been living. That choice is usually based on an earnest desire to do things differently; however, under our own strength, it doesn't always work out that way. God is in the change business. He has the ability to make all things work together for the good of those that place their faith in Him. God promises us that He can and will heal us through His Holy Spirit... From the AuthorWhen most people hear the word recovery, they first think about overcoming addiction to drugs and alcohol. While an important part of the process of overcoming addiction, true recovery is for all of us who are tired of anything that may be destroying our lives. It is for all of us who want to stop living in grief, fear, anxiety, guilt and shame. It is for all of us who want to separate ourselves from the issues of the past. And it is for those of us who want to turn our will and our life over to a sovereign God who loves and forgives us. Our hope is that through this study will help you to strengthen your faith and grow closer to Him.

Reviews..."Raw, life-changing and inspired, Kerby and McCraigh connect us to the power that changes lives." -- Dean Angell, Senior Pastor, Lakeview Church, Canada "No matter how badly we've messed up our lives, this book shows we don't have to be alone". -- Judy (Mrs. Larry) Burkett"Awesome book! I have been in recovery since the mid-80's. I have checked out different Christian recovery books, but I really like this the best. It is written very plainly with a clear message of biblical truth. One of the things that I most like about it is that it is not oriented to any particular addiction. Instead, it is written more from a perspective that we all struggle in life and this workbook applies to whatever your issues are. It is a good book for everyone...for those who recognize their brokenness and for those who don't! For those who are churched and for those who are not. It has a really comforting message and points us to the love of God. Jim shows how God can bring healing and restoration to broken lives. And more importantly, they show that He can use us even now...even in the midst of our brokenness. God does not expect us to clean up to come to Him. He wants us to come to Him and allow Him to clean us up. I highly recommend this workbook!" --- Abigail Wolfer, Indiana "Twelve Healing Words Help Readers Remain Close to God Through Difficult Times...
