I Want to Trust You, but I Don't: Moving Forward When You’re Skeptical of Others, Afraid of What God

New York Times bestselling author Lysa TerKeurst shows you what to do with your skepticism and distrust so you can heal from past betrayals and move forward with strength and resilience. Trust is the oxygen of all human relationships. But it's also what trips you up after you've been burned. Maybe a friend constantly lets you down. A leader or organization you respect turns out to be different than they portray themselves to be. A spouse cheats on you. A family member betrays you. You're exhausted by other people's choices and starting to question your own discernment. And you're wondering, If God let this happen, can he even be trusted? How can you live well and step into the future when you keep stumbling over trust issues? Lysa TerKeurst says it's not simply about finding better people to walk with. It's about developing the stability you long for within yourself and with God, so you don't become cynical and carry a broken belief system into every new relationship. In I Want to Trust You, But I Don't, Lysa shows you how to - identify which of the eleven relational red flags are stirring up distrust, so you can pinpoint why you're feeling uneasy; - stop having more faith in your fears coming true than God coming through for you by asking crucial 'what if' questions to better process your doubts; - recognize when a fractured relationship can be repaired by considering a reasonable list of characteristics necessary for rebuilding trust; and - understand the physical, emotional, and neurological impact of the betrayals you've experienced and start healing from the inside out. In a world where so many things feel alarming, this book will give you a peace that isn't dependent on unpredictable people, circumstances, and experiences. Instead, it offers practical and biblical ways to make real progress toward healthier perspectives, relationships, and a future you can authentically look forward to.

The Hidden Peace: Finding True Security, Strength, and Confidence Through Humility

The peace we long for begins with coming to the end of ourselves. There are inescapable aspects of life we are all marked by. We have less control than we want, more anxiety than we're comfortable with and just enough insecurity to continually remind us of our shortcomings. To experience these things is to be human. We aren't superheroes and invincibility isn't an option. But humility is. Whether we've incorrectly defined it or underestimated its relevance to our daily life, humility is the missing piece for the security, strength and confidence we all want. It's time to stop trying so hard to avoid our limitations or overcompensate for them. God has better for us and it begins with bowing low in humility. With relatable stories, practical wisdom and biblical theology broken down into digestible takeaways, The Hidden Peace by Dr. Joel Muddamalle will help you: - Overcome the fear of being 'found out' or looking like a fraud by realizing God's intent for shortcomings and weaknesses. - Walk through hurtful situations in the most God-honoring way by gaining a true understanding of biblical humility. - Answer the question 'why do bad things happen to good people?' by learning a perspective shift that will change how you process suffering. - Know confidently that you're living with purpose and being used by God through seven ways to practically live like Him today. - Be led by the biblical definition of self-awareness so you can experience the unexpected ways it brings safety and security to your life. - Stop believing the lie that theology is out of touch or too difficult to comprehend as Joel shows you how to dig into scripture and study it yourself. Weakness is not your enemy. Planted in the soil of humility, weakness becomes a means to gaining more strength and more peace.
