Relief without Cutting: Taking Your Negative Feelings to God by Amy Baker of Faith Biblical Counseling shows you there is a better way to manage your negative emotions. Instead of cutting--the never-ending cycle of hiding and going deeper and deeper--you can go to Jesus with all of your troubles. You are precious to him. So precious that he shed his blood for you! His power is big enough to fill you with peace and liberate you from cutting.

I'm just shy. You've worn the label for so long that it has become your identity. A counselor recently described it as social anxiety, but the new label does nothing to ease the pain. You wish you could feel ""comfortable in your own skin"" but instead, in social situations, you feel anxious and out of place. Where can you go for help? In Social Anxiety: Being Comfortable in Your Own Skin, Amy Baker of Faith Biblical Counseling explains that confidence in God, not self-confidence, is the answer to the problem of social anxiety. Trusting in God breaks the paralyzing grip of fear, freeing formerly ""shy"" people to enter fully into relationship with God and others.

With compassion and understanding, they walk through some of the struggles and pitfalls of dealing with infertility and offer practical help for leaning on Christ, connecting with your spouse, and engaging with others.

Infertility: Comfort for Your Empty Arms and Heavy Heart (Minibook)

Your Perfectionism Isn't Enough. Striving for our lofty goals is supposed to be helping us achieve more, but does it? Do you ever feel like your perfectionism is actually getting in the way of your achievements?
 The terrible truth is that perfectionism is a crushing burden that can leave us angry, anxious, and paralyzed. The impossibly high standards we set ourselves are actually bringing us down rather than lifting up. The core issue is that the quest for perfection will never transform a heart. 
Amy Baker examines the root and purpose of the longing for perfection to show how God's grace transforms the of not achieving perfection into the overflowing abundance of Christian faith.

Picture Perfect: When Life Doesn't Line Up

Emotions are a powerful and important part of life, but sometimes it feels like they are out of control. Mild frustration quickly turns to anger. Sadness becomes despair. Disappointment deepens into bitterness. You may begin to wonder if you control your feelings or if they control you! Amy Baker explains that our emotions don t have to run our lives. Instead, our emotions can reflect God s character even in our broken world. Through discussing how Jesus expressed his emotions and working through practical examples of real-life struggles, she shares how the gospel offers new resources for handling your emotions productively and reshapes the desires and interpretations that fuel your feelings.

Managing Your Emotions (Minibook)

It is difficult and sometimes frightening not to have the good opinion of others. No one likes to face the possibility of rejection, humiliation, or opposition. Yet, making our goal others' approval confines us to a small world where life consists of pleasing others. Experienced counselor Amy Baker shares that rejection by others is not the whole story. There is a bigger story of God's love for his people. His love endures forever. His love can be relied upon, while people's opinions shift and change according to whether or not we are pleasing them. But God, in Christ, is totally pleased with us. His opinion of his dearly loved children will not change. When you remember these truths and replace your anxieties about approval with them, you will be free to live and love in God's world.
