Rotten Fruit
Pulling Up the Roots of Anxiety
Scripture tells us that good trees bear good fruit, and bad trees bear bad fruit. While our struggle with mental health does not make us necessarily good or bad, it can be indicative of what is going on deep in our hearts. Anxiety is just the rotten fruit that has grown up from rotten roots planted in the foundations of our souls. God wants you to dig up those roots, and replace them with His presence. In this book, you will learn what it looks like to truly fight the battle against anxiety from a spiritual standpoint. What does it look like to take our thoughts captive? How do you dig up roots of anxiety? How do you learn to manage anxiety so that it does not manage you? This book will give you all the steps you need to find the root cause of your anxiety, and teach you how to walk in freedom. God has a better way for you. He created you to bear good fruit. So, start here. Start now.
how the book came to be
I spent most of my life being controlled by anxiety. It dictated every decision I made. As a child, I could never understand the fear I had over the most simple things. My emotions would take over in the blink of an eye and I couldn't stop them. When I was older, I developed a habit of just avoiding anyone or anything that made me nervous. But that solution could never last. Eventually, it became so intense that I knew I needed to do something different. Through a series of events, including therapy, the Lord set me free from the control of anxiety in my life. Not that feelings of anxiety never come up, but I have learned to take authority over them. I knew there was a better way to live, and God showed me how. But I knew He didn't just teach me to walk this way for me. He taught me so that I could teach other people. God never intended for us to live in darkness and fear. He wants us to walk in light, and He has shown us how through His Word. My goal with this book is just to point people to the truth that God has already given us. He is the way. He is the answer.
