What Do You Think of Me? Why Do I Care?

by Edward Welch

Overview

Tired of Trying to Win Approval and Escape Rejection?
Peer pressure, codependency, shame, low self-esteem—these are just some of the words used to identify how people are controlled by others' opinions. Why is it so important to be liked? Why is rejection so traumatic? Edward T. Welch's insightful, biblical answers to these questions show that freedom from others' opinions and genuine, loving relationships grow as we learn about ourselves, others, and God. This interactive book includes questions for individual or group study and is suitable for teenagers and young adults.

Editorial Reviews

Come have your desire for the love and praise of others re-ordered by this practical, well-written, and engaging book. By seeing God in his glory, and ourselves as bought with a price, we are freed to love others without the need to angle for their praise.

California Baptist University - Dr. Alex Chediak

This book is life-giving. And since God gives us limited years on his earth, it's a book for those who are young to read sooner rather than later! I wish I had had this book forty years ago!
