With a flair for storytelling and an engagingly honest charm and wit, the acclaimed author of Coloring Outside the Lines discusses the joyful gift of grace that releases us from achievement-oriented living, provides the unconditional acceptance we crave, and offers believers the greatest adventure of our lives.
So many things have the power to change our lives dramatically--loss, fear, betrayal, failure. When everything goes wrong in life, it's so easy to give in to the pain, frustration, and anger that threaten to overwhelm us. Though we may feel like giving up, there is life--abundant, exciting, and fulfilling--after our world gets turned upside down. In fact, says John Westfall, it's often in the face of fear and loss that we truly learn to live with courage, faith, and surprising joy. Westfall speaks from experience. He may have pretended everything was fine, but inside he was beaten down, burdened, and aching for freedom from the depression that gripped him after a sudden loss. Through his own story, the stories of others, and wisdom from Scripture, Westfall shares with readers the peace of acceptance, the pleasure of release, and the power of risk. Joy can be ours, even after devastating events. This book lights the way to a bright and new beginning.
A compassionate pastor equips readers with biblical wisdom, encouragement, and strategies to get past what they'll never get over.

What if yesterday never happened? What if you were free from your old hurts, trauma, sadness, and mistakes? What if you could be healthier, happier, and freer to be yourself? What if your life could be transformed just by changing your mind? It can. Drawing on the call in Romans 12 to "be transformed by the renewing of your mind," pastor and speaker John F. Westfall shows how you can overcome yesterday in order to live with hope and gratitude today. A self-described "world champion negative thinker," Westfall knows how hard it can be to let go of the past. With great compassion and practical advice, he motivates you to allow the Holy Spirit to change the way you think, releasing you from negative thoughts and destructive patterns. Ready to leave worry, anxiety, and regret behind? Then you're ready to live like there's no yesterday.
