How to "Embrace
the Desert" and Discover the Seven Spiritual Steps to Freedom from Earthly
Attachments and Addictions
A Path in the Desert: Finding Freedom from Addictions that Destroy Happiness
Ken Hensley
We are a nation of addicts. Not only alcohol, drugs, and other chemicals,
but even work, food, money, TV or the internet can become additions. Although
many of us imagine ourselves free from such addiction, there may yet be things
in our lives that enslave our will, and sap the time and energy that should
be used for loving, and being loved, by God. These idolatrous attachments
are literally killing untold thousands of men and women who really want to
live for God. Fortunately, there is hope to find freedom from the earthly
attachments and addictions that are the single greatest enemy of our happiness
as Catholic Christians.
The Key
to Happiness
Sometimes it seems that everyone in our confused culture is looking for answers
and finding everything but the truth. In the powerful new series A Path in
the Desert, Catholic Speaker and former Baptist Minister Ken Hensley reveals
why "self help" and "motivational" methods fail to answer
our deepest longings-because our emptiness can only be filled by God. As you
listen, you'll come to understand the Catholic teaching on happiness, and
how it can positively change your life
The Slavery
of Addiction
Examining the ever-present problem of addiction from Biblical, theological,
and psychological perspectives, you'll discern how many people make "gods"
of the things of this earth, and why they cannot satisfy. Also, you'll see
how even Christians become attached to things other than God even though we
know better. This "something else" then becomes an attachment, an
addiction, an idol, leading only to guilt and frustration. Now you'll learn
why Christians so often suppress the knowledge of God and "exchange the
truth for a lie." And you'll become convinced that it's time to find
the way out.
The Path
Home
Following the example drawn from the book of Exodus, Ken Hensley reveals the
seven crucial steps to freedom from earthly attachments and addictions. As
he reveals the meaning of the Biblical imagery, you'll discover why we must
"follow Spirit of God into the desert" and why only "embracing
the desert" can keep us from replacing one addiction with another. Order
now and discover how deliverance begins, and the most important thing you
can do to experience freedom, strength, health, happiness, and peace.
