How to Overcome Stinking Thinking 1.


If you get a lemon.....?

To find out ways to overcome Stinking Thinking and thereby Depression and Anxiety, take a look at my recent sermon at TCA. Once a year, Pastor Brad Rosenberg asks me to speak on Romans 12:2:

Do not be conformed to the fallen world but be instead transformed by renewing your mind.

Go to the web page and click on You Tube link to see the recently uploaded talks on "Overcoming Anxiety and Fear!"

Why are depression and anxiety on the rise in America? More people are depressed today than there were back before WWII. Nobody can convince me that the stresses of modern life in America are more prevalent today than back then. The famous Psychologist Martin Seligman thinks it comes from the modern "Self-Esteem Movement". I am not sure about that, but he makes a good case for focusing on the ways we try to protect children from the truth about themselves.   For example, everybody gets a first place prize even  if they lost every game. But kids know that is a scam so they refuse to believe a sincere compliment.

I think Stinking Thinking is on the rise and we have failed to teach ourselves and our kids how to fight back and "Take every thought prisoner to the mind of Christ." What think ye?

My book, Power Christian Thinking tells all about ways to renew the minds and conquer Stinking Thinking. Get it today if you are bold enough to face the truth!
