Once upon a time there was a version of our faith that was practically...irresistible. But that was then. Today we preach, teach, write, and communicate as if nothing has changed. As if “The Bible says it” still settles it. It’s time to hit pause on much of what we’re doing and consider the faith modeled by our first-century brothers and sisters who had no official Bible, no status, and humanly speaking, little chance of survival. What did they know that we don’t? What made their faith so compelling, so defensible, so irresistible? Buckle up...you’re about to find out.

In this six-session audio bible study (study guide sold separately), Andy Stanley gives you five key questions to ask when you have a decision to make and you're not sure what to do. We never know what or who hangs in the balance of the decisions we make. But what we do know is this: Private decisions have public implications. Your private decisions probably won't stay private, and personal decisions will impact some other persons.

Making conscientious choices about technology in our families is more than just using Internet filters and determining screen time limits for our children. It's about developing wisdom, character, and courage in the way we use digital media rather than accepting technology's promises of ease, instant gratification, and the world's knowledge at our fingertips. And it's definitely not just about the kids.

Publisher's Summary
In this compelling and helpful book, previously published as It Came From Within!, pastor and author Andy Stanley wrestles with what he calls"four invaders of the heart": guilt, anger, greed, and jealousy. One or another of these caustic emotions sabotages lives on a daily basis and destroys relationships. But Stanley assures listeners that there is hope.
In his trademark style - smart, engaging, and popular - he examines where these powerful forces come from and reveals effective strategies for overcoming them and moving toward healing and maturity.

Any additional comments?
Andy Stanley frankly addresses fear, jealousy, anger & greed in the context of how these issues of the heart impact our daily life & reactions to both inconsequential & crisis situations.
It IS challenging - it is a mirror - but very worthwhile & loaded with authenticity - a hallmark of Andy Stanley's ministry. I am now on my 3rd listening of this recording. excellent stuff.

Getting rid of heart poison
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes. It gets beneath the surface and uncovers destructive emotions that will eventually derail us if not dealt with.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Enemies of the Heart?
How anger says: "You owe me." Greed says: "I owe me," Jealousy says: "God owe me." Guilt says: "I owe you."
What does Lloyd James bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Lloyd James read the book well.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Yes, how some of the poison in my heart was exposed! Now I am taking steps to clear up the poison so it does not effect most important relationships in my life.

Compelling, Heart Revelation, Life Changing
What did you love best about Enemies of the Heart?
The author, Andy Stanley, deals with a serious and sensitive subject matter and right through the audio, he manages to make the listener think, 'How does this apply to me and others in my life?' It has helped me to further understand the 'why' in how we behave and to look behind the behaviours to see the reason a person behaves in a certain way, instead of just the behaviours which are the out working of a much deeper issue. I love his sense of humour, I often smiled and sometimes laughed out loud, however there were times when the Lord touched my heart so deeply, I wanted to weep for the lack of understanding and compassion in the world.

Freedom for your heart is possible
The reader (Lloyd James) has a nice reading voice, good speed, and articulated making this enjoyable to listen to. The content has little gold nuggets throughout. Andy gives and encourages us to perform achievable, daily habits to keep our hearts free. I also enjoy the questions throughout. This isn’t just read and leave. It’s about being intentional for yourself and those around you. There are a lot of biblical references which is expected and personally appreciated. The Word is our foundation and the written instruction of life.
