A very worthwhile read

The book was very informative. The way it shows the relation between sin and mental problems is very solid. I enjoyed the tests that one can take to see how one related with the sin tests. I would highly recommend the book.

I am a tough reviewer. I don't put much stock in counselors or in feelings, so this book was not a great discovery for me.

Back for Seconds

I first became acquainted with Dr. Backus years ago after reading Telling Yourself the Truth. I really got a lot out of that book as well as this one. If you're at a crossroads and needing guidance, I suggest this and any other book by Dr. Backus.
