stressed out a practical biblical approach to anxiety: The Anxious Christian Rhett Smith, 2012-03-01 Is anxiety “un-Christian”? Many Christians believe the answer to this question is yes! Understandably, then, many Christians feel shame when they are anxious. They especially feel this shame when well-intentioned fellow believers dismiss or devalue anxiety with Christian platitudes and Bible verses. Rhett Smith, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, helps us understand anxiety in a new way. Rhett argues that, rather than being destructive or shameful, anxiety can be a catalyst for our spiritual growth. Using Biblical thinking and personal examples, Rhett explains how anxiety allows us to face our resistance and fears, understand where those fears come from, and then make intentional decisions about issues such as career, marriage, money, and our spiritual lives. Allow this book to challenge your view of anxiety, and allow God to use your anxiety for good. |

stressed out a practical biblical approach to anxiety: The Knowledge of the Holy A. W. Tozer, 2022-05-17 True religion confronts earth with heaven and brings eternity to bear upon time. The messenger of Christ, though he speaks from God, must also, as the Quakers used to say, speak to the condition of his hearers; otherwise he will speak a language known only to himself. His message must be not only timeless but timely. He must speak to his own generation. The message of this book does not grow out of these times but it is appropriate to them. It is called forth by a condition which has existed in the Church for some years and is steadily growing worse. I refer to the loss of the concept of majesty from the popular religious mind. The Church has surrendered her once lofty concept of God and has substituted for it one so low, so ignoble, as to be utterly unworthy of thinking, worshipping men. This she has done not deliberately, but little by little and without her knowledge; and her very unawareness only makes her situation all the more tragic. |

stressed out a practical biblical approach to anxiety: Mental Health and the Church Stephen Grcevich, MD, 2018-02-06 The church across North America has struggled to minister effectively with children, teens, and adults with common mental health conditions and their families. One reason for the lack of ministry is the absence of a widely accepted model for mental health outreach and inclusion.

Seven broad inclusion strategies are presented for helping persons of all ages with common mental health conditions and their families to fully participate in all of the ministries offered by the local church.

Your child can become an adult who loves the Lord the same way you do — but this will likely require a radical parenting reset on your part.

stressed out a practical biblical approach to anxiety: Judge Not Todd Friel, 2019-03-15 THE CHURCH HAS GONE TO THE WOLVES. The blasphemously named Holy Ghost Bartender encourages people to get drunk in the Spirit and fall down laughing maniacally. A megachurch youth pastor puts peanut butter in his armpits and has his youth group lick it out. A celebrity pastor spends twenty-four hours in a bed, with his wife, on the roof of the church, in an effort to encourage his flock to have sex every day for a month. This is just the tip of the insanity iceberg known as Evangelicalism. A famine of biblical discernment has led to skinny sheep, fat goats, and a compromised Christian witness. While there are great, godly men who boldly and biblically shepherd their flocks, the majority of evangelical churches have become silly centers. The result? America the beautiful has become America the debauched. In Judge Not, Todd Friel dares to violate Evangelicalism's first commandment: thou shall not judge. Friel satirically and painfully exposes some of the rot in the underbelly of the contemporary church, and points to a solution to help rescue the church, save souls, and glorify God. Prepare to potentially be shocked, offended, and inspired to do more than just complain about the state of Evangelicalism. This book will enable you to actually do something to put an end to the chicanery that pervades far too many churches. It is time to act, before all of our children are consuming peanut butter a la armpit. |
stressed out a practical biblical approach to anxiety: Overcomer David Jeremiah, 2018-10-02 We live in a time of deep uncertainty. And yet, the Bible promises we were created to enjoy lives of freedom, even in times when the world around us seems filled with darkness. We were created to be overcomers, conquering the greatest obstacles in our lives. In his new book, Overcomer, beloved teacher David Jeremiah offers his insights on one of the most quoted but least understood passages of the Bible: the apostle Paul's admonition to the Ephesians to take up the whole armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-18). With his signature depth, wisdom, and compassion, Dr. Jeremiah explores the powerful relevance of spiritual armor as a critical tool each day as we confront the specific challenges in our lives and of our time. If you've had enough of living in defeat, it is time to find renewed strength and claim the promises of God's Word to overcome life's greatest threats. |
stressed out a practical biblical approach to anxiety: Finding Quiet J. P. Moreland, 2019-05-07 Bracing and honest, Finding Quiet will validate the experiences of believers with mental illness, remind them they are not alone, and provide reassurance that they can not only survive but thrive again. In May 2003 prominent philosopher, author, and professor J. P. Moreland awoke in the middle of the night to a severe panic attack. Though often anxious by temperament and upbringing, Moreland had never experienced such an incident before. Thus began an extended battle with debilitating anxiety and depression. More than a decade later, Moreland continues to manage mental illness. Yet along the way he's moved from shame and despair to vulnerability and hope. In Finding Quiet Moreland comes alongside fellow sufferers with encouragement and practical, hard-won advice. According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, nearly 20 percent of Americans suffer from mental illness, and people in the pews are not immune. Moreland explores the spiritual and physical aspects of mental illness, pointing readers toward sound sources of information, treatment, and recovery. |

stressed out a practical biblical approach to anxiety: Overcoming Anxiety Paul Bucknell, 2015-01-29 Every journey we take is different. Some are welcomed; some are feared. Many of us have hidden our anxieties away and never dared to face them. Sometimes it is because we do not believe that there is any real help. Usually, it is because we just do not know how to find peace. Stress, anxieties and their related fears can not only be managed but actually overcome. People worry because they were never designed to handle the stresses of life on their own. God wants to help you. Your Creator has designed a way to experience His inner peace while walking through the stresses of life. The bridge illustrates the pathway across the difficulties of life to His peace. Each of the ten sessions takes you one step over the bridge. Some steps are more strenuous; others more reflective, but each takes you to know and regularly experience the peace of God. The sessions are listed below. Just going through your book that I have purchased yesterday and want to let you know that it is amazing! God has showed me a lot in my walk with Him but can honestly say that it is such a great handbook for people dealing with anxiety. - A&C I am battling worry and anxiety as a Christian and this information has spoken to me and I believe it is a turning point in my relationship with the Lord. The truths it spoke are amazing and it has caused me to start meditating on the Word and to really take a look at the causes of my wrong thoughts. - Kevin |
