Addiction exists when a person is internally compelled to dedicate their energy to things that do not represent their true desire. To be more precise, addiction is a condition of compulsion, obsession, or preoccupation that enslaves a person's will and desire. The goal of this book is to help believers in the local church use biblical principles to provide necessary assistance to those at various stages of addiction. Various aspects of the addiction problem are discussed, as well as ways to help victims trapped in the web of vice. Instructions are also included on how to structure a pastoral model for believers in the local care of suffering people. "Our society today faces a frightening dilemma. The problem of addictions has made the existence of many barren and meaningless. The contents of this book will assist those who wish to offer understanding, love, and appropriate counseling to those who suffer. Churches, pastors, and concerned laypeople will benefit from these well-founded principles. They will fulfill the implications of the holistic Gospel for the benefit of those in bondage and need." Thomas F. Zimmerma.

Happiness!Everyone craves it. And everyone benefits from it.But fewer and fewer people are finding it. This means that a perpetual cloud of gloom darkens our world. Smiles are scarce. How do we explain sadness? While the answers are varied and complex, amidst them, one thought emerges: are we pursuing the wrong path to joy? Max Lucado presents a proven plan for happiness, rooted in biblical principles: the 'one another' statements. Directives such as: love one another, serve one another, and forgive one another, embody what the Bible teaches. Research also confirms: doing good does good to those who do it. Do we want to personally experience lasting joy? Do we wish to increase the level of happiness for an entire generation? Max Lucado states: "You and I cannot solve every societal problem, but we can bring smiles to some faces. And who knows? If you light up your corner of the world, and I do the same with mine, a silent revolution of joy might just break out."

Palau Pat & Wells PeggySue I remember ruminating (worrying) about the statistics given to me regarding my type of cancer, my age, and lymph node involvement. I used all my mathematical skills as I calculated the mitigating factors expressed by the oncologist; an eighty-five percent chance of living another five years. Who wants five years? I wanted more. And what about that fifteen percent? Was I in that group too? During my sleepless nights, the promises of Scripture arrived. I chose to review those rather than the statistics." Let's face it, each of us has to deal with fears: fear of illness, fear of the future, fear of others' judgment, fears that we create in our heads, sometimes entirely irrational. By sharing true stories and battles, the author has created an uplifting and extremely useful tool for overcoming our greatest fears. She takes us by the hand to the place where fear vanishes and abundant life reigns. Written with the sensitivity that only someone who has faced battles and fears can possess, this book helps readers confront fear head-on and draw upon the infinite resources found in Christ to achieve inner peace.
