Descriere The Thing Beneath the Thing: What's Hidden Inside (and What God Helps Us Do about It) - Steve Carter

\nNow available in trade paper!\n \nWe all have a surface self we present to the world, but our smiling faces often hide our pain that comes from unsuccessful attempts to find relief through harmful choices. How can we keep past wounds from damaging us? Learn to allow God to heal triggers, insecurities, and more so you can experience spiritual health and wholeness.\n \nEvery driver knows the importance of avoiding potholes when navigating a route. Besides the uncomfortable bump, they can create permanent damage to vehicles and endanger entire roadway systems.\n \nThe same is true of our lives. We all have potholes that have been formed by pain, trauma, or choices that we've made. Usually we find a quick fix, filling the hole with activities and even addictions disguised as culturally acceptable life choices. But before long, the hole is back--and often wider and deeper--waiting to catch us off-guard, which in the end creates even more permanent damage.\n \nIn The Thing Beneath the Thing, pastor Steve Carter asks the simple question, How is life working for you? He knows that potholes exist and that the longer we live disconnected from answering this question, the more we will fill those holes with harmful choices. The solution? Allow God to fill them with His grace and love so that we can discover the beauty of peace and wholeness He has for us.\n \nThe process lies in discovering our: \n \n- Triggers: the setup that sets us off \n- Hideouts: where we go to escape the pain of our story \n- Insecurities: the false stories we create about ourselves \n- Narratives: the false stories we create about others \n- Grace: the place where we discover how to become whole, holy, and spiritually healthy \n \n \nJourney with a seasoned fellow traveler who has learned how to ask key questions that help us unlock the places where we've buried things. Then we can dig deep, invite healing, and learn new ways to operate so we can begin experiencing the life of freedom Jesus promised.\n
