If you can identify with any of the following, this book is for you!

  • Me-time is selfish and time-wasting.

  • It’s easier to say yes to others than to myself.

  • My work computer is part of my vacation luggage.

For many Christians, the concept of loving themselves sounds contrary to Jesus’s words: “If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross” (Mathew 16:24 NIV). Does, “Love your neighbor as yourself” mean our earthly needs are as important as our service to others?

Each chapter of Self-Care: Selfish or Sacred looks at a myth about self-care, shares the author’s personal struggles, identifies misconceptions, and provides Scriptural explanations. Questions and prayer prompts are included with blank spaces for interactive use.

The book’s easy-to-use format is conducive to personal or group study.
