Publisher's summary

Beloved pastor Steve Poe helps Christians identify and break free from the destructive patterns that are keeping them from the joy-filled, flourishing life Jesus promised.

We all have both good and bad habits in our life. Creatures of Habit reveals how to remove bad habits and replace them with godly ones. But it's not a matter of working hard, of "pulling ourselves up by our bootstraps." That approach simply doesn't work. True transformation is God's work - our job is to listen, obey, and put into practice what he's already directing us to do.

Steve Poe has pastored large, growing churches for more than 34 years, and during that time he has counseled hundreds of people. He's seen that poor choices often become bad habits that in turn cause people a lot of problems. Hundreds of things can become a bad habit in our lives, but Poe focuses on the most common, among them:

  • anger,
  • lust,
  • worry,
  • cynicism,
  • pride,
  • self-centeredness, and
  • greed.

Each chapter provides insights, biblical examples, and tangible tools that will help you break the bad habits that can become spiritual strongholds in your life.

Reflection questions are available in the audiobook companion PDF download.

Honest examples to demonstrate the weakness of man. The need to stay in touch with our Lord for direction.

I liked the value of prayer and the need to stay in touch with our in all things!

Excellent book with a completely different take on habits

So many books tell us what to do, not what not to do and the great habits to replace them with. This is a fantastic book for Christians and will change your perspective on so many things. Excellent!
