Switch on Your Brain: The Key to Peak Happiness, Thinking, and Health

Dr. Leaf gives scientific evidence from a Christian perspective of how changing your thinking changes your brain. This helped affirm my faith in the Word of God’s power to change me.
The Pleasure of His Company: A Journey to Intimate Friendship with God
by Dutch Sheets
I have read many books to help me satisfy my hunger to know God in a deeper way. Dutch’s book is well-written and easy to understand. He shares personal stories and reveals his heart. Dutch’s openness and honesty made me feel that I knew him as a friend. In so doing, he draws each one of us toward true friendship with God.
