Before we're ready for anything new, we've got to get rid of the old. If we don't, we'll end up right back where we started.Many people talk about wanting something new in their lives. They want a new season. They want new relationships. They want new experiences. But often they're not ready for the new because they have unfinished business with the past. David Cooper helps readers identify the areas in their life where they've become stuck and overcome the issues that are keeping them there. Attitudes and thought patterns such as: - Anger, resentment, hurt feelings, stereotypes, and prejudices- Failures, poor decisions, and mistakes- Perfectionism, poor self-image, and feelings of inadequacy- Disappointment and unfulfilled dreams- Worry, fear, and anxietyWhen we experience pains and difficulties in life, Jesus wants us to "shake off the dust." That is what He taught His disciples to do when they went into towns and were rejected for their ministry. Still today Jesus's followers need to know how to move on to the next opportunity without allowing the dust of the past to cling to them.
