Book Description

Have you ever found yourself without the resilience you need in order to thrive? Do you sometimes find it hard to manage your emotions well even though you pray, read your Bible, and serve others? Does God seem to be some illusive presence that you just can't seem to sense or hear?

This practical and yet intensely personal book will give readers a different model for dealing with their problems. Learning to sense God enjoying her, no matter what, turns out to be the beginning of an intimacy with the Creator that the author never dreamed possible.

Joy, that feeling you get when someone is glad to be with you, has the power to manage all that goes on inside of us—when there is enough of it. Unfortunately, however, for many of us there is very little joy inside compared to the shame, fear, sadness, anger, and hopeless despair that swirl about. The result of this imbalance is emotional shutdown or meltdown, which leave us unable to fully connect with those around us. Depression and addiction run rampant when joy is lacking. And yet most of us are never shown healthy ways to deal with our emotions, to express them well, and to build the joy we need in order to endure the hardships of life. This is precisely what Back to Joy intends to do.

More than a simple "how-to" that simply gives you steps to follow, Back to Joy: An Intimate Journey with Jesus into Emotional Health and Maturity actually shows you:

• What it looks like to sense God's enjoyment of you no matter what

• How going back to your past can free you to fully live in the present

• That your needs are valid and that God wants you to learn to receive

• What suffering well looks like when you have been attacked

• The radical mission God is on to seek and save all that was lost in your life and in the lives around you.

By reading intimate journal entries spanning 18 years of her life as a Missionary, Relational Coach, Pastoral Counselor, daughter, wife, friend and mother, you will see how Jesus has gently cared for the author, revealed His truth to her, healed traumatic memories, convicted her when she was stuck in harmful paradigms, and ultimately led her into health and maturity.
