Enemies of the Heart by Andy Stanley

Andy's publishers have decided to re-release a book that wasn't too old. Enemies of the Heart used to be titled, It Came From Within. And I actually liked the old cover, with the giant monster, better.

Andy offers advice as to how we can break free from four emotions that control us. Those emotions are:

Guilt
Anger
Greed
and Jealousy

We've all experienced these feelings at one point or another right? We lose a job, our family will do something that hurts us, maybe we go through a divorce.

These emotions can come in and take over how we interact with the world around us. If we let that happen, we become the bitter old man (or woman) who no one wants to be near.

Inside you'll find practical tips with some biblical emphasis to help discourage those emotions from reigning in your heart. You'll learn where they come from and how they can seem to hit us out from nowhere.

I liked the added 6 week small group study questions that come along at the end of the book.

This is one of the good Stanley books.
