5.0 out of 5 stars I use A More Excellent Way everyday May 12, 2009

By J. Faulkner

Format:Paperback

I use the principles found in A More Excellent Way everyday; usually several times a day. The chapter titled "The 8 R's to Freedom" along with Appendix C - "Walking Out to Wholeness" outline the practical steps that I use daily to get God's peace and keep His peace in my life.

Thanks to this book and the teaching from the Bible by Henry Wright I have God's peace in my life and it has transformed my life. Before I read this book, and subsequently attended a For My Life Program at the ministry center in Thomaston Georgia, I looked successful and I looked like I had it all together. But it was a performance I put on everyday to hide the stressed, worried, scared person that I really was. By using the practical applications found in this book on how to become "a doer of God's Word," all the stress, anxiety, fear, and performance is gone. God has replaced it with His perfect love. Now I am free to be who I really am and I'm at peace with myself and those around me.

As a result of the inner peace and trust in God that I now have all the physical problems I was experiencing have gone away. I used to have high blood pressure, constant heart burn, and even mild angina from time to time. All of that is gone now.

I have been a Christian for over 40 years and most of that time I felt like I was bidding my time until this life was over and I could go to heaven. Now I'm excited about life and I'm happy to be on this planet bringing God's Kingdom into my life and the lives of my brothers and sisters in Christ!

If you are serious about beginning to manifest God's Kingdom in your life and the lives of those around you I highly recommend this book to help you get started.

5.0 out of 5 stars SPIRITUALLY & MEDICALLY SOUND December 15, 2009

By Dr. Frans J. Cronje

Format:Paperback

As a practicing physician for 17 years; one who has studied and practiced medicine in South Africa and at Duke University with an additional Masters degree in science, I strongly recommend this book for those who want to understand God's perspective on sickness and health and those for whom medicine has nothing to offer other than chronic or harmful medication. From a medical perspective, the spiritual roots identified in A More Excellent Way are entirely consistent with the scientific findings of modern mind-body medicine, called psychoneuroimmunology. The associations between stress, anxiety and fear and specific diseases are well established. What is important, and unique about this book, is that it identifies fear, guilt and shame, and their various extensions, as sin - which indeed they are. It is a verifyable scientific fact that their effects specifically parallel specific parts of the body: Fear affects tissues of the skin, nervous system and electrical supply of the heart and cardiovascular system directly (i.e., the ectoderm derivatives); guilt, anger and bitterness affect the musculoskeletal system (mesoderm derivatives); and shame affects the intestines and endocrine system (endoderm derivatives). So the specific medical associations are valid but far more detailed than medicine has been able to prove to date. What this book does is to allow the believer to identify these problems, repent for them as sin, and renew (recalibrate) their mind to God's truth. This important component is where mind-body medicine is still floundering: It identifies the problems but offers no real solutions. In my own life, I have experienced these truths at work. I had hypertension due to fear of tomorrow; arthritis due to self-bitterness for poor decisions I had made and high blood lipids due to anger about a variety of things. When the Holy Spirit was able to convict (note: not condemn, but convict) me of these persistent sins, which are contrary to God's Word (aka sin), I repented and was healed of all of them without anyone else needing to pray for me! Obedience to God's Word brought the blessing of health. So I would like to encourage readers to come on the same side of their Creator and be restored. Christ himself made a clear association between sin and disease in several places in the Gospels. Paul said that not discerning the Lord's body (i.e., not taking the atonement seriously through self examination)led to disease and premature death and James confirmes there are diseases that are unto death and in need of repentance rather than prayer. So, in a world where believers are sick and dying at a rate that is no different from the world of unbelievers, with medicine having less and less to offer at ever-increasing costs, we need to rethink our theology. This book is the first important step in that direction. It encourages us to be Christ-centered BUT ALSO Christ-like.

5.0 out of 5 stars Next to the Bible, the most life changing book... April 12, 2009

By Robert R. Herrera

Format:Paperback

A More Excellent Way was given to my husband and me a few years ago as a wedding gift; towels, pots and pans are useful but little did I know how instrumental this book would be in helping us to establish Biblical truth in our marriage. A Bible college graduate and pastor's child, I was a physical and emotional wreck. God used the principles in A More Excellent Way to penetrate my heart, going beyond my upbringing to teach me to understand and apply Biblical scripture in a way that has brought clinical healing, deep and lasting peace and a secure hope. Seriously, this is a MUST READ for all who want freedom from the cycle of doctor visits, medications, despair and frustration to unanswered but well intentioned prayer. My husband and I have since given away countless copies of A More Excellent Way to see lives restored through the Love of God. Thank you, Pastor Henry Wright, for writing this book!
