Think Right, Feel Right, finally a book that truly shows us how! In many lives, past wounds and circumstances have kept peace and happiness beyond reach. Now, with the help of Dr. Isett's innovative guide, we can reach them. This groundbreaking book is loaded with fresh thinking, solid answers, and the tools we need. Step-by step, the guide helps us build lasting emotional well-being and overcome problems with anxiety and worry, depression, addiction and self-esteem. We find out how to regulate our emotions, build esteem, and mindfully control our emotional health and well-being and, we come away with the ability to live a happier, healthier life. Life affords no guarantee that we learn how to feel well. If we weren't taught how to self-nurture or regulate our emotions effectively, happiness and emotional well-being will be scarce. We over rely on substitutes like spending, eating, working, or drugs and alcohol to prop up our sagging moods and emotions, increasing the risk of addiction. Or we may struggle along with low self-esteem, anxiety and depression and perhaps try to buffer these telltale symptoms with medication. Think Right feel Right puts us on the right path: it shows us how to feel well and stay feeling well. Offering cover-to-cover self-help, this practical guide delivers its powerful, behavior-changing message with compelling logic and clarity. The guide's straightforward style, helpful examples, chapter summaries and study guide questions make it easy to use. Empowering personal growth through its cutting-edge cognitive-behavioral approach, Think Right, Feel Right extends the opportunity for real help to many.

From the author of the acclaimed Simply Christian and Surprised by Hope comes a book that addresses the question that has plagued humans for centuries—what is our purpose? As Christians, what are we to do with that ambiguous time between baptism and the funeral? It's easy to become preoccupied with who gets into heaven; the real challenge is how we are going to live in the here and now. Wright dispels the common misconception that Christian living is nothing more than a checklist of dos and don'ts. Nor is it a prescription to "follow your heart" wherever it may lead. Instead, After You Believe reveals the Bible's call for a revolution—a transformation of character that takes us beyond our earthly pursuit of money, sex, and power into a virtuous state of living that allows us to reflect God and live more worshipful, fulfilling lives. We are all spiritual seekers, intuitively knowing there is more to life than we suspect. This is a book for anyone who is hoping there is something more while we're here on Earth. There is. We are being called to join the revolution, and Wright insightfully encourages readers to find new purpose and clarity by taking us on an eye-opening journey through key biblical passages that promise to radically alter the work of the church and the direction of our lives.
