Imagine what your life would be like if you never had to be worried again! Unlike any other program, these unparalled tools in The Worry Free Life help people gain control of their emotions, thoughts and self-destructive behaviors.
In The Worry Free Life you will learn how to break bad habits, break loose from painful, destructive emotions like depression, anxiety, guilt, helplessness, resentment and irrational fear. Most importantly and UNLIKE ANY OTHER PROGRAM, you will learn how to get at the self-sabotaging beliefs that are underneath it all, beliefs you are not even aware you have and change them for good!
Marcus D. Lamb, President of Daystar Television Network describes the program like this: “The Worry Free Life provides a wealth of practical information for anyone who wants to take control of their emotions, thoughts and behaviors. It moves you beyond simply handling life’s struggles – it transforms your thinking and lays out the foundation for a better, more improved life. The authors began with something that started out as effective personal growth tools and developed them into a life changing road map for freedom and growth. It’s a wonderful mix of psychology and Christianity, with real life solutions for victorious living.”
Have you ever felt like there was someone else living inside of you? Have you ever made promises to yourself or others that you failed to keep? Have you ever felt as Paul of Tarsus did when he wondered "I don’t understand myself at all, for I really want to do what is right but I don’t do it. Instead I do the very thing I hate." This Biblically based and clinically proven program will show you how to get to the root of those problems and effect permanent and lasting change in your life. You will learn how to achieve the "peace that exceeds all understanding" and realize as the Bible promises "the fruits of the spirit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness and self-control."
Imagine experiencing the promises in Galatians of the fruit of the spirit: more "love, joy, peace, patience, kindness and self-control." The Bible tells us what to do: Love more, be at peace more and be more faithful, more merciful, more generous and kind...we show believers how to have more of that kind of life. It is as Paul commands us in Philippians 2:12 “to continue to work out your salvation.”
In the Introduction we learn how this program sprang out of a grass roots life skills ministry in the small town of Placerville, California. Since its inception this powerful life changing program has been featured internationally on Daystar TV, The Harvest Show and 100 Huntley Street in Canada. Groups around the world are picking up this program for their small groups, Bible studies, classrooms and even sermon material.
This program is truly a gift from God. Many Christians come into a new life in Christ with all the joy and hope of newlyweds but many of us soon find we are still plagued by much of same old self-defeating patterns that brought us to seek help in the church in the first place. The Worry Free Life can help us "work out our salvation," accelerating our personal and spiritual growth; improving our relationships with friends, spouses, children, employers and our community. Happier Christians are more effective ministry leaders and better examples to the world. This is powerful "Kingdom building" material.
Despite today’s fast-paced world, people desperately want to live their lives with great passion and conviction. They seek answers from the Bible, pastors and even counselors... and yet they are unable to find peace because of excessive worry and destructive emotions. In The Worry Free Life, you’ll learn how to convert your negative thought processes to healthy ones ― and eliminate worry ― so you are free to live a life of love beyond anything you have ever imagined!
Great study material for large or small groups, or even individual study, the program contained in The Worry Free Life is changing thousands of lives all over the world.

Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved.:
Imagine that you are living your life in a garden, much like the Garden
of Eden. Imagine the serenity that surrounds you. Everything is healthy and
flourishing. Growth and abundance are evident everywhere. The beauty
takes your breath away. You see lilacs and poppies, irises and petunias. The
fruit trees are heavy-laden with abundant, ripe, and colorful fruit. Evidence
of the Creator’s hand is everywhere. You can find little evidence of disease or
pestilence. Storms and natural hardships probably exist but never last long
or have any devastating effect. Depression and overwhelming anxiety are
nonexistent. No one gets panic attacks or suffers from the crippling effects
of resentment and bitterness. No pain lasts for long and when it occurs, it
always makes the residents grow stronger and more Godlike through their
suffering. Joy and love always win and grow to new heights of intensity.
When hardship does befall, you handle it with resilience and grace. This is
the world God wants for you and intended you to inhabit.
Imagine now that your mind is that garden―that, in its natural state,
God created your mind to be as hopeful, joyfully radiant, and abundant
as the garden. Imagine, as Paul describes it, that when “the Holy Spirit controls our lives, he will produce this kind of fruit in us: love, joy, peace,
patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.”
Galatians 5:22-23 (NLT)
