Calm the Mental Chaos That Keeps You Stuck, Drains Your Hope, and Holds You Back

De: Kyle Idleman

Narrado por: Mark Smeby

Discover the biblical, neurological, and emotional keys to transforming destructive patterns of thinking into a renewed mind--one thought at a time.

Whether we wrestle with anxiety, harmful thoughts about ourselves, or mental spirals that hold us back from spiritual growth and healthy relationships, many of us wish we could control our thoughts rather than let them control us.

As the senior pastor of one of the largest churches in America, bestselling author Kyle Idleman has seen the power of right thinking transform lives, including his own. In Every Thought Captive, Kyle points us to the tools we need to get our thoughts into submission so we can live a fuller and more joy-filled life. If you feel frustrated and discouraged in your battle to take control of your thoughts, this biblically rich, practical book will help you:

• Learn to identify the five thinking patterns that sabotage your life and relationship with God
• Encourage your brain's neural network to develop new ways of thinking that are consistent with your values
• Start getting "unstuck" immediately as you implement simple but profound practices like "Win the Morning" and "Say It Out Loud"
• Understand what transformed thinking looks like in the unique context of your life

What you think about creates your attitudes, governs your emotions, determines your behavior, shapes your relationships, and ultimately defines your life. But armed with God's wisdom and fresh truth about brain health, you can take control over your thoughts and embrace the full and flourishing life you long for.

A thought journal exercise can be found in the audiobook companion PDF download.

Very eye opening

What am I living for? My life is just a vapor. I need to be living for my eternity, for what matters most.

Practical tips on how to put the commission of holding thoughsts captive to action

I liked the anecdoctal stories of people in everday life and learning the fruits of their passions. It brought context to the principle that what we do for Christ will last.

Easy listen

Loved this so much! EVERYONE needs to listen/read this book! Kyle really breaks down tangible ways scripture tells us how to take our thoughts captive!

Made me think…about my thinking

I appreciated this book as it walks through many of the reasons we think the thoughts we do. I also appreciated the exercises throughout the book that lead to applying the truths presented.

Amazing read

Wow, such an amazingly awesome book. My Wednesday’s Men’s small group is currently going through RightNow media study, which is one of the reasons I wanted to read it. And let to just state here, it does not disappoint.

I read other books by Pastor Idleman. All have been great. This one here hits differently for some reason. I believe the material within, if applied and practiced, will be life altering. This material is biblically sound.

Thanks to Kyle and his team with getting this information out to the world. I better for having invested my time. My recommendation to others is to take the steps to a transformed you and read this book. Blessings

practical and helpful!

author does a great job of synergizing the biblical truth of scripture with practical application.

Great book!

What a great eye opener to our thought process and how we can change the negative thoughts in our life. To change how we respond to others.

Great Book!

A good in-depth book on how to take your thoughts captive and channel them into something positive rather than negative. He tells lots of helpful stories and goes into the science behind why our brains think the way they do.

He gives tips on how to change negative thought patterns and redirect them. Lots of scripture references that were helpful. I enjoyed the chapter on the power of our thoughts and the patterns of distractions. Great content and the audio was well done.

“Your mind is a garden and your thoughts are seeds and everything you see and listen to are causing it to grow with weeds or good fruit.”

Serious book that the author tries to make too funny

I think the content of this book could be really good, but the author tries to be a stand-up comedian throughout the book. And I find that disrespectful to his audience and to the content.
