Being a man in the twenty-first century isn''t easy. In fact, trying to live up to a masculine ideal that may be nothing more than myth has left many men frustrated and angry. Often unable to express their emotions, these men appear buttoned-up until a seemingly minor setback unleashes a torrent of rage that can destroy personal and professional relationships. Does this sound familiar? The mistakes of other drivers fill him with road rage Setbacks at work send him into a tailspin Unmet expectations in his relationship leave him seething Holidays and other occasions are filled with tension instead of joy Suppressed anger, when it finally boils over, scalds everyone involved-including loved ones, co-workers, and even strangers. Christian counselors David Stoop and Stephen Arterburn offer solutions in this trade paper version of The Angry Man. They show what happens when men''s deep-rooted anger starts to ruin relationships, jobs, and health, and they help sufferers find their way back from the brink. Men will find the help they need to reimagine a positive image of their masculinity; their loved ones will find advice on reaching a man at his boiling point.

The authors of "The Life Recovery Bible" now describe seven keys or tools everyone can use in life in order to experience renewal and transformation.

“I’ve worked hard to get where I am. I’ve overcome great obstacles. I’ve earned it.” No one had a greater right to say those statements more than King David. He rose from the fields of Palestine to the palace of power and privilege. He’d made it. But now that he was on top, would he continue to grow spiritually in the midst of his success? Self-sufficiency is a temptation every man faces. But we can’t be both self-sufficient and on the move spiritually at the same time. Just as in David’s life, God often allows us to experience the consequences of self-sufficiency so that we can rediscover our need for his leadership and empowerment in our lives. In the end, the crushing blows we face serve to humble us…and forge the basis for the next wave of spiritual momentum in our lives. Being God’s Man…in the Search for Success will help you–whether in individual or group study–come to grips with the attitudes and actions you must own as you move forward to achieve God’s goals for you in life.

When life seems to conspire against you, how do you find the courage to dive into healing waters? When Lucia Coffey looks at her reflection, she sees fat and failure. When she looks at her sister Sonia, she sees svelte and success. When she looks at God, she sees that divine love can''t possibly be doled out equally. All her life, Lucia has coped by throwing herself into taking care of those who seem more worthy of God''s goodness, and feeding the dreams she has buried alive.
