The Life Model:
Living from the Heart Jesus Gave You
(Paperback)
by James G. Friesen
The Life Model: Living from the Heart Jesus
Gave You (2000) is full of lessons for us all. Jim developed
this handbook for Christian living, along with the Shepherd’s House
counseling team. Each of the five co-contributors drew from a unique
realm of learning, so this book is much broader than any one person
could create. It presents a unifying approach to ministries of counseling,
recovery, pastoral care, prayer ministry, deliverance, inner healing,
child rearing, body life and health. Substance abuse recovery programs
internationally are changing lives through The Life Model’s
principles. Most major ministries dealing with trauma and abuse
in the USA use The Life Model as part of their teaching.
Churches and missions adopt The Life Model because it develops
strong maturity, particularly where people must face suffering.
Emphasizing trauma recovery, life-span maturity, living as a community
and building joy, this book has been translated into many languages,
and continues to promote healing and wholeness around the world.
“The Life Model is not just a theory – it
is a model. The Life Model does not just talk about growing – it
gives you practical steps on how to mature. The Life Model does
not just promote recovery – it identifies specific ways to heal
traumas. And lastly, The Life Model does not just offer casual reading
– it challenges you to change and grow and be the person that God
designed you to be.” – from “What is The Life Model?”
“The Life Model is the best model I have
seen for bringing Christ to the center of counseling and restoring
the disintegrating community fabric within Christian churches.”
-- Dr. Dallas Willard, speaker and author of Hearing God and The
Divine Conspiracy
“The answer given here is very real – a
combination of healthy spirituality, intellectual insight, a need
for community and friendship – all put together to help us become
transformed.” -- Dr. Francis MacNutt
