Multnomah, June 2011
Break free from the destructive power of guilt, anger, greed, and jealousy. Divorce. Job loss. Estrangement from family members. Broken friendships. The difficult circumstances you are dealing with today are likely being fed by one of four emotional forces that compels you to act in undesirable ways, sometimes even against your will. Andy Stanley explores each of these destructive forces—guilt, anger, greed, and jealousy—and how they infiltrate your life and damage your relationships. He says that, left unchallenged they have the power to destroy your home, your career, and your friendships. In Enemies of the Heart, Andy offers practical, biblical direction to help you fight back, to take charge of those feelings that mysteriously control you, and to restore your broken relationships. Includes a six-week discussion guide—a valuable resource for small groups!

Take your everyday, ordinary life—your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life—and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him. (Romans 12:1, MSG) Are you experiencing more of the joy and abundance Jesus promised, or less? Many people suffer a stale, lackluster relationship with God yet think of themselves as doing well spiritually. Tragically, they don’t know what they’re missing. Author Doug Sherman invites you to make life with God an adventure. In More Than Ordinary, you’ll learn how to:
• Transform your entire approach to daily life
• Enter into deeper conversation with God
• See Him as walking alongside you in each circumstance and problem you face
• Enjoy God’s presence in your everyday responsibilities and activities
• Change your relationship with Him from dull to delightful
God promises that life with God can be More Than Ordinary!
