From Here To Serenity

Many people suffer from a variety of mental illnesses, relationship problems and other personal issues. The common denominators among those struggling individuals are: 1. An inability to shift perspective, to look at different points of view or to display empathy toward others. 2. An estranged relationship with God, themselves and others while idolizing the tangible trappings of this world i.e. substances, success, and people. 3. A lack of self-understanding and self-acceptance. 4. A poor self-awareness of: core beliefs, early life trauma, feelings, etc. The key to a person’s mental, psychological, spiritual and emotional happiness is having an understanding about how self-reflection, self-awareness and relationships play a major role in the healing process. The reader will learn: How the lack of self-awareness, reflection and acceptance perpetuate destructive behaviors; How Satan uses self-deception and our God given needs to thwart our efforts to build healthy relationships; How we sabotage our own efforts toward healing and to avoid these pitfalls; How to distinguish between pain and suffering, and which one to accept and to avoid. From Here to Serenity examines these and other crucial God given skills, and identifies in detail what God says about the human condition, His part in our recovery and His plans for our ultimate restoration that individually and collectively create meaningful living.
