From the Back Cover

Is your life ruled by checklists or obligations? Do you define a godly life by service to others, accomplishments, or even a constant pursuit to please God? Bad news: these well-intentioned efforts make you weaker, not stronger, actually fueling your battles with anger, addiction, anxiety, depression, insecurity, or shame.

But here’s the good news: God designed the abundant, victorious life to happen far more effortlessly than you imagined! In these pages you’ll discover the keys to lasting peace, joy, and healing, including how to

• win the war against your most toxic emotions and behaviors
• spark growth fueled by God’s love and grace, not rules and performance
• align your life and mind with a proper perspective of God and His expectations
• discover how both Scripture and science reveal God’s design for pressure-free living
• allow yourself to be imperfect

Here is everything you need to live from rest, not stress, and experience a powerful new way of living—that doesn’t all depend on you!
