Choosing to Be Well
by Haven Logan"...Yet many of us with good intentions still struggle to adopt healthier lifestyles...Author Haven Logan, a psychotherapist in private practice, has found that unhealthy habits are almost always rooted in a lack of self knowledge about negative patterns and beliefs. These are usually expressed in internal dialogues between warring parts of ourselves. Logan employs the Hawaiian Huna tradition of basic, conscious, and High selves to explore these divisions. Dr. Logan's four-step program and the book's extensive exercises help us to integrate these misalignments, to listen to our bodies' cues, to identify and heal self-destructive patterns, and finally to consciously choose a healthy lifestyle. The goal is to support our natural inclinations instead of someone else's model of a "perfectly fit person." This is an original approach to the root cause of poor health, and a guide to living a healthier, happier life."

Christ Our Mediator: Finding Passion at the Cross (LifeChange Books)
by C. J. MahaneyWHAT'S THE KEY TO HAVING MORE PASSION FOR CHRIST, THE CROSS, AND THE GOSPEL ? The answer is to look at the death of Christ not from our point of view, but from God's. That's what this book helps you do in a profound, strategic, and life-changing way. Author C. J. Mahaney exposes our human tendency to look at the Savior's death (and at everything else!) through our own subjective feelings and impressions, rather than from the standpoint of objective truth. By nature we always begin with ourselves rather than with God. But by following the God-first "Divine Order" in how we think--and by asking "What do I believe?" instead of "How do I feel?"--we're freed up to embrace the right truth in the right way. The right feelings quickly follow, and they're reliable because they're anchored in truth.The Secret to Sustaining Joy Do you desire more passion for Christ? Then learn to see His death not from our point of view, but from God's. Author C. J. Mahaney puts you at our Savior's side--and into His soul--during the most emotionally wrenching moments of His final hours. As you better understand the true nature of His struggle, you'll grasp more than ever the staggering significance of why Jesus died...and fully experience His sacrifice as a personal act of love for you. Allow the deepest truths of Calvary to stir your passion for Christ our mediator into a flame that burns your whole life long. Story Behind the BookThere's nothing more overpowering than to climb Calvary 's hill in childlike attentiveness and wonder, with all our distractions and wrong assumptions cleared away. This book was written that we might be gripped by gratitude and enflamed in passion for the Savior, Christ our Mediator, who suffered the Father's righteous wrath for us.From the Hardcover edition.

Drawing almost entirely on Matthew's Gospel for his interpretation of each passage, the author also shows how Christ calls His people to follow Him faithfully, regardless of the cost.

Christian No More: On Leaving Christianity, Debunking Christianity, And Embracing Atheism And Freethinking
by Jeffrey MarkThis book is for everyone: Atheists will find excellent arguments to help them defend their positions; Agnostics will appreciate the clarification it brings; Christians who are struggling will find this book a great help in breaking free from their shackles as they learn exactly why there's no possible way Christianity is true and why they don't have to worry ever again. The Bible says that the world's languages began with the Tower of Babel. Today we know better. But how could the Bible contain stories that aren't true? Author Jeffrey Mark was a devout Christian throughout his life until, during his early 30s, he began studying the Bible more seriously than he ever had. And that's when he made the disturbing realization that so many stories were simply untrue. For him, this realization started with the Tower of Babel. That in turn launched a series of events that eventually led him to abandon his long-held beliefs. Go into the mind of a former Christian. Understand why he believed what he did, why it was so hard to let go, and why, after understanding the truth about the Bible, he ultimately had no choice but to stop believing. Travel with him as you see how Christianity and Judaism rehash older beliefs that have long been written off as mythical. Find out how the Bible in its original form spoke of multiple gods creating the Earth, and how the dearly-held beliefs of today's Christians bear no resemblance to the Bible's stories in their original form. As you take a journey into reason and the scientific method, find out why there is simply no possible way Christianity's teachings can be true, and why we live in a universe that is guided by science--not by a god and his mythical son who rose from the dead.
