On the Nightstand: Winning the War in Your Mind: Change Your Thinking, Change Your Life

I went to a healing retreat last month, and one of the speakers was a priest and exorcist. His talk included thoughts about Matthew 12:43-45, when an unclean spirit returns to the place it was removed and brings along its friends. The point, the speaker said, is that when demons have been cast out of us, we must fill the space with God. That resonated with me, since this Lent I’m focusing more on living a life pleasing to God and less on people’s reactions to me.

This book by a mega-church founder and senior pastor was recommended to me. It promises to use Scripture and brain science to help readers thwart the enemy.

What’s on your nightstand?
