A Sound Mind: The Audiobook

What would you tell your younger self if you could go back and speak to them in the middle of the battles they were facing?

In this final chapter of A Sound Mind, I go back to the reason I wrote this book in the first place, and share the letter I wish I could have given myself when I was struggling with anxiety, insecurity, doubt, fear, overthinking, sadness, and the lies of the enemy.

Congratulations!  After listening to this chapter, you’ll have finished the book.  Thank you so much for listening.

As we close A Sound Mind, my prayer is that God uses this final chapter—and everything He’s shown me throughout this book—to remind you that you don’t have to be controlled by the battles in your mind. Through Jesus, you can overcome.  A sound mind is yours for the taking.

Do you want to know the secret to having a mind that is sound and unshakable?

In this chapter, I talk about what God has shown me about having a mind that can stand firm, what two houses caught in the same storm can teach us about the battles in our minds, and why the struggle may not be over—but it can be overcome.

If you want to know how God can help you stand firm through whatever comes against your mind, I hope you’ll listen to this chapter. My prayer is that God encourages you the same way He encouraged me.

Have you ever felt like you were fighting the battles in your mind all by yourself?

In this chapter, I talk about why we weren’t meant to fight our battles alone, what I’ve learned about turning to God and the people I trust when I’m struggling, and why no matter what we’re facing, we’re never truly alone.

If you’re dealing with battles in your mind and feel like you’re facing them all by yourself, I hope you’ll listen to this chapter. My prayer is that God uses it to draw you towards Him and the people around you, and to show you that you are never alone.

Did you know positivity can be a powerful tool for overcoming battles in our minds like anxiety, insecurity, fear, and overthinking?

In this chapter, I talk about how we can stay positive even when our circumstances aren’t, the difference between irrational positivity and supernatural positivity, and what Super Why and Blue’s Clues have to do with all of it.

If you’re dealing with battles in your mind and want to hear how God has helped me use positivity to overcome, I hope you’ll listen to this chapter. My prayer is that God uses it to help you the same way He’s helped me.

Have you ever felt like you have no control over the thoughts going through your mind? I know I have.

In this chapter, I begin the final section of A Sound Mind by talking about replacing the bad thoughts in our minds with good ones. Over the next few chapters, we’ll look at practical things God taught me that can help us overcome the battles in our minds—no matter which of the mental battles in this book we may be facing.

If you’ve ever felt like the battle in your mind was stronger than you, I hope you’ll listen to this chapter. My prayer is that God encourages you the same way He encouraged me.

Do you ever find yourself wanting to help someone going through battles in their mind, but you don’t know what to do?

In this chapter, I share 5 ways we can help others who are going through battles in their mind.  

If you’re wondering how you can help or what you can do, I hope you’ll listen to this chapter.  My prayer is that God uses it to use you!

Have you ever had someone encourage you at exactly the moment you needed it?

In this chapter, I share the power of encouragement by sharing a story of a time I was feeling pretty down on myself, and how one small moment of encouragement made a much bigger difference than the person giving it probably realized.

If you’ve ever wondered how you can encourage someone, or about the difference it can make, I hope you’ll listen to this chapter. My prayer is that God encourages you the same way He encouraged me.

What would you do if you were in Central Park and two guys suddenly started taking the bikes you rented—and when you tried to stop them, they told you, “They’re our bikes now”? 

In this chapter, I share the crazy story of what happened next and how it helped me understand something important about the way the enemy tries to steal our joy and peace. I also talk about two things the Bible teaches us to do to fight back when the enemy attacks.

If you’ve ever felt like the enemy was trying to steal your joy or peace, I hope you’ll listen to this chapter. My prayer is that God encourages you the same way He encouraged me.

Have you ever had to ride your Razor scooter past a kid who was trying to swing a croquet mallet at your legs?

In this chapter, I share a funny story from my childhood and what it can teach us about the enemy’s tactics, staying on the path God has for us, and the promise found in Isaiah 54:17 that no weapon formed against us will prevail.

If you’ve ever felt like the enemy was trying to scare you off the path God has for you, I hope you’ll listen to this chapter. My prayer is that God encourages you the same way He encouraged me.

Have you ever wondered how to tell the difference between real truth and twisted truth in your thoughts?

In this chapter, I talk about the difference between truth and “twisted truth,” why some of the enemy’s lies can be so difficult to recognize, and how Jesus showed us what to do when the enemy tried to use twisted truth against Him.

If you’ve ever struggled to know whether the thoughts in your mind are actually true, I hope you’ll listen to this chapter. My prayer is that God encourages you the same way He encouraged me.
