The world tells us that we are enough- That if we just love ourselves, build our confidence, and believe in our own worth; we will live a great life. All of these messages are lies, none of these things can bring fulfillment, they leave us trying to reach a mark of enough that we can never measure up to. The truth is you were never created to be enough; We were designed to rest in the perfect one, the one who is more than enough.

I Once Searched for Control

Growing up I faced childhood trauma, sexual abuse, relentless bullying, mental health issues, and the pain of an alcoholic parent. From childhood to young adulthood my life felt out of control, I fell into darkness trying to gain a sense of control. I struggled with my identity and self-worth; I made choices that furthered my feeling of emptiness. I wanted to find control over my own life and agency; I made choices I believed would grant me autonomy only to find a further loss of control.

This book is about trading the worldly illusion of control for true, life-giving freedom that is found in the fear of the Lord. It is a testimony of the peace that comes when we stop trying to be the master of our own life and instead live a life that honors and glorifies God. This story is about taking the old self off and nailing the past to the cross. It is about moving out of fear and shame and stepping into the light and freedom of Jesus Christ.

Christ Reliant Encouragement to Inspire Godly Day-to-Day Living

This book is for anyone struggling with the toxic lies of the world. The never-ending messages that we need to measure up and believe that we are enough on our own. The messages that we just need to try harder. God never leaves us; He sets out to gather his lost sheep. This story is for anyone who is carrying shame or trauma. My journey will encourage readers to let go of control and trust in God. It will inspire readers to weigh their daily choices not by asking, "Is this a sin?" but "Does this honor and glorify God?" This is a message of encouragement to go all in with God, to live a life wholly surrendered even if it's "UNPOPULAR" by world standards. This is a reminder to lay all the striving down and take up his yoke for his burden is light.

You Don't Have to Measure Up

If you are weary from trying to be enough, this testimony will remind you that true peace, freedom, and healing are found in Christ. If you are weary of the checklists, put the pen down. If you are weary of the guides with the steps to looking like a "good Christian" come find direction from the ONLY guide you've ever needed. Step away from the lies of the world and be transformed by the truth of God's love. Come and find rest, true freedom, and restoration in Christ.

Store description

We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
