Books We Love

Reading can be a great way to slow down, hear a new perspective, and learn something new. There are so many great books out there to accompany you on your mental health journey - but where do you start?

Here are a few books our team of licensed counselors have be loving lately.

If you’re feeling anxious…

Read Breath as Prayer by Jenifer Tucker. Breath as Prayer invites you to the crossroads of Christian contemplative practice, Scripture, psychology, and science to deepen your faith, bring peace to your body, and discover a new reliance on Christ. Breathe deeply, lean into God's Word, and discover why every breath can be an invitation to pray.

If you’re having relational distress…

Relationships are wonderful...until they're not. In Good Boundaries and Goodbyes, bestselling author Lysa TerKeurst helps you stop the dysfunction of unhealthy relationships by showing you biblical ways to set boundaries--and, when necessary, say goodbye--without losing the best of who you are.

Is it unloving or selfish to set a boundary? Are Christians ever called to walk away from a relationship that's no longer safe or sustainable? Lysa has asked these hard questions in the midst of her own relational struggles.

If you’re dealing with anger…

Read Uprooting Anger by Robert D. Jones. In this biblically-based, practical guide to anger management, Robert D. Jones focuses on changing the underlying motivations and beliefs of the heart that drive angry behavior. By uprooting these heart problems, readers will learn to handle their anger and see the fruit of thorough and lasting change.
