Got an addiction? Just about everyone has something they have difficulty giving up. This book may be just what you need to cross over to from helpless to hopeful. (I just made that up. Didn't it sound good?) Anyway, to win a copy of this book just post a comment. No need to name any specific addictions, but if you want to, here is mine. You don't have to twist my arm for me to confess that I'm addicted to Starbucks. (I feel better now having gotten that off my chest.)
I will pick a winner on Wednesday. Best wishes to you and have fun commenting. Just make sure to leave a way for me to contact you if you win. And please...don't send me a Starbucks gift card for Christmas. :)
About the book:
Addiction is a rapidly growing problem among Christians and non-Christians alike. Even socially acceptable behaviors, such as shopping, eating, working, playing, and exercising, can quietly take over. Clinical psychologist David Hawkins breaks the silence with this enlightening expose of the addictions that control people every day. It's loaded with practical information that will help readers...
recognize and talk about addiction in their own life or family
understand how people become addicted and what can happen when they do
break the addictive cycle of thoughts and behaviors
create a healthier lifestyle based on scriptural principles
build a community of support
Virtually everyone is addicted to something or affected by a loved one who is. Many people who appear to live freely are secretly controlled by their compulsion. Breaking Everyday Addictions provides the tools they need to allow the healing power of Christ to permeate their lives.

This sounds like a really good book, both for putting it to use in my personal life and also because I love people and would probably gain insights in relating to them. I do have one addiction that I have been trying to break for a while. I'm trying to memorize Scriptures to help me, but any additional pointers would be great. Thank you!
