Book cover for Breaking the Food Seduction: The Hidden Reasons Behind Food Cravings—and 7 Steps to End Them Naturally
Chocolate stimulates the same part of the brain that morphine acts on. For all intents and purposes, chocolate is a drug—not necessarily a bad one and not a terribly strong one, but strong enough nonetheless to keep us coming back for more.

Jonathan Haidt
“My central claim in this book is that these two trends—overprotection in the real world and underprotection in the virtual world—are the major reasons why children born after 1995 became the anxious generation.”
Jonathan Haidt, The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood Is Causing an Epidemic of Mental Illness

Matt Chandler
“So quit looking for 'the one'. You have a better chance of finding an Oompa Loompa riding a unicorn, fighting Bigfoot.”
Matt Chandler, The Mingling of Souls: God's Design for Love, Marriage, Sex, and Redemption

Roy T. Bennett
“Listen with curiosity. Speak with honesty. Act with integrity. The greatest problem with communication is we don’t listen to understand. We listen to reply. When we listen with curiosity, we don’t listen with the intent to reply. We listen for what’s behind the words.”
Roy T. Bennett, The Light in the Heart

Jonathan Haidt
“In my 35 years of studying moral psychology, I have come to see this as one of humanity's greatest problems: we are too quick to anger and too slow to forgive. We are also hypocrites who judge others harshly while automatically justifying our own bad behavior.”
Jonathan Haidt, The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood Caused an Epidemic of Mental Illness

Katy Kauffman
“The meek don't give up their power to "win" in order to be godly--they give up using their power to harm.”
Katy Kauffman, Heart Renovation: A Construction Guide to Godly Character
