Recommended Reading

  • David Yeager teaches you why young people won’t listen to you, but he also teaches you how to motivate them. This book is essential reading for anyone who works with this age group and wants to see them flourish.

  • Todd Hall explains how what we are really struggling with is implicit and emotional (rooted in our individual stories) rather than explicit and rational (rooted in what we think). He then offers an evidence-based roadmap for how to heal that is concrete and clear.

  • “It’s not what you think!” If you’re having thoughts that make you feel crazy or scared of what you are capable of, then they are likely just unwanted intrusive thoughts. Trying to make yourself feel better is not the solution. This book could change your life.

  • Do you or someone you love constantly seek reassurance that you aren’t a bad person, that you won’t get sick, that someone isn’t going to get hurt, etc.? This book can help you get out of that loop and start getting your life back.

  • The third book in a series that explains how to overcome Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). I can’t recommend enough.

  • A hopeful book about understanding and moving forward with sexual brokenness as part of your story.

  • Helpful perspective and advice for those who feel stuck in the middle years of their life.

  • One of the most motivating books I’ve ever read. Cut back on digital distraction and start getting your life back.

  • Parker Palmer helps people, like me, who have struggled to figure out what they want to be when they grow up.

  • “As we age we need to forgive—forgive those who hurt us, forgive ourselves for our own mistakes, forgive life for having been unfair, and then forgive God for seemingly not having protected us—all of this so that we do not die bitter and angry, which is perhaps the greatest religious imperative of all.”
