With a foreword by Rick Warren, author of The Purpose Driven Life , this revised and updated edition will help you find true happiness—if you choose to accept it. We’ve all been hurt by other people, we’ve hurt ourselves, and we’ve hurt others. And as a result, every single one of us ends up with some sort of hurt , hang-up , or habit . But the question we all face is, Where do we go from here? Ten years after the original edition of Life’s Healing Choices , this newly revised edition contains updates to basic teaching principles—based on ten years’ experience—as well as new and contemporary testimonies. Using the Beatitudes of Jesus as a foundation, Rick Warren and John Baker, pastors at Saddleback Church, developed the eight choices shared in this book. In addition to practical, encouraging biblical teaching, each chapter includes two real-life testimonies of men and women whose lives have been transformed by living out the eight choices in this book. Through making each of these choices, you too will find God’s pathway to wholeness, growth, spiritual maturity, happiness, and healing. You’ll find real answers, real hope, and a real future —one healing choice at a time. Review: Good - Good book Review: Life lessons - The author speaks on topics necessary for one to engage.

Great Healing process for our church group
We are just completed our 2nd of 9 meetings for this study/recovery/healing journey. This is for anyone & everyone. I was very reluctant to do this because I don't like to talk about feelings & be vulnerable. I had a lot of anxiety prior to the 1st meeting but once we started, I was more relaxed, and I can tell that it is working already (really after the 1st meeting). I you really work through this process & do the book and we are doing the small group workbook also it helps. If I continue to grow and heal through the rest of this process the way I have in the 1st 2 weeks, I can definitely see myself working through this process several more times working on other issues that I need to deal with and heal from. I am not a person that likes to read or study but I am really enjoying this book along with the workbook. This book helps with it all.... eating disorders, sexual abuse/trauma, addiction of any kind, mental abuse, physical abuse, depression, etc... The one thing that I have realized from our 2 meetings is things that I thought I was the only one with some issues or thoughts or past problems but NOPE so many women had answers that were so similar to mine that it was scary. I definitely recommend this book & the workbook that goes with it.

Worth More than $20. I Bought 2 More For Friends/Family
I would not have normally purchased a book like this. However, I was experiencing 3 of the 4 consequences of problems that the book lists: Fear, Frustration, Failure, and Fatigue. That caught my attention. Very good book and fairly easy read. As I read through the book, people came to mind who were experiencing years of hurt and pain without any resolutions. I bought 2 of those people a book and recommended the book to a 3rd person. Not all things in the book work for me, thus the 4 stars instead of 5. Practical suggestions, though for help with habits, hurts and addictive behaviors. Really enjoy the testimonials at the end of each chapter. Those provide hope

So applicable to anyone's life...
John Baker Sr. gives a great perspective on healing. The founder of Celebrate Recovery digs deep and challenges preconceived myths. If you cannot find a local Celebrate Recovery then this is a must read book, regardless of your hurts, habits and hangup. Don't let the word recovery hinder you into thinks that only people with addictions can be helped. It is a must read for everyone even if you do attend Celebrate Recovery. Different nuggets of truth are here.
