Critic reviews

"This valuable and useful book is for those seeking emotional healing as well as for ministers wanting to add more tools to their belts. The last chapter teaches forgiveness in a way that is profound and accessible to those who struggle to forgive." (Kimberlee Herman, MSW, LCPC, best-selling author and Christian counselor, Phoenix, AZ)

"Insightful and practical, tough and tender, The Performing Heart offers a comprehensive roadmap to freedom." (Niamh Jackson, M.I.A.C.P., Dublin, Ireland)

"Read this life-changing book! Keep it close and use it on a regular basis. Allow God to free you from what is keeping you from entering His rest." (Rev. Lori Maxey, founder and executive director, The House Tuscaloosa, Tuscaloosa, AL)
