Featured Release - Living Beyond Your Feelings by Joyce Meyer
Joyce Meyer provides a comprehensive guide to the range of emotions that people feel every day and shows how to manage them. The average person has 70,000 thoughts every day, and many of those thoughts trigger a corresponding emotion. No wonder so many people often feel controlled by emotions.
In Living Beyond Your Feelings, Joyce Meyer examines the gamut of feelings that human beings experience. She discusses the way that the brain processes and stores memories and thoughts, and then--emotion by emotion--she explains how readers can manage reactions to those emotions. By doing that, she gives readers a toolbox for managing the ways that reactions to the onslaught of feelings can wreak havoc on people's lives.

Combining his personal experiences with scriptural insights and principles for true happiness, he shows readers how every day can hold the same promise and opportunities for pure joy that they experience at five o'clock on Friday.
