God's Power

Discover how to rely on God’s power when you need willpower.

In John 15:4 Jesus tells us that without him we can’t do anything, but if we remain in him, he will produce fruit in us. He’s referring to the delicious fruit of the Spirit--love, joy peace, patience… and, last but not least, self-control. In Guided By Him, you’ll learn lots of practical ways to draw closer to Jesus and "remain in him." The most life-changing is taking the 12 Steps.

Read what GBH author Julie Morris says about the 12 Steps:

I remember my reaction the night I went to my first 12 Step meeting. When I heard the 12 Steps, I knew they were the answer! I knew that they would help me to lose weight and keep it off. As I took the Steps, I began winning the battle with food. My cravings became weaker, and the miracle finally happened. I lost my weight and have kept it off for over 25 years! Another amazing thing happened as I took the Steps: problems that used to drive me to the refrigerator such as lack of discipline, worries and anger, started getting better. By taking the Steps, I learned how to rely on God’s power instead of my shaky will power. And I learned how to be guided by him to a thinner, not so stressed-out life.
