Synopses & Reviews
Normal people are stressed, overwhelmed, and exhausted. Many of their relationships are, at best, strained and, in most cases, just surviving. Even though we live in one of the most prosperous places on earth, normal is still living paycheck to paycheck and never getting ahead. In our oversexed world, lust, premarital sex, guilt, and shame are far more common than purity, virginity, and a healthy married sex life. And when it comes to God, the majority believe in him, but the teachings of scripture rarely make it into their everyday lives.Simply put, normal isn't working. Groeschel's WEIRD views will help you break free from the norm to lead a radically abnormal (and endlessly more fulfilling) life.

Synopsis
Break free from the norm to lead a radically abnormal (and endlessly more fulfilling) life.
In our over busy, unprincipled, oversexed world; lust, debt, guilt, and shame are far more common than a healthy relationship to time, money, and relationships. Simply put, normal isn't working.
In WEIRD, bestselling author of Winning the War in Your Mind Craig Groeschel unpacks a Christ-centered philosophy that will help you know how to:
- Use your time wisely.
- Put money in a godly perspective.
- Have healthy relationships.
- Understand sex as God intended it.
- Center our values around Jesus.
If we follow Christ, we're not supposed to be like everyone else. We're supposed to be a little bit...well, weird. The whole point of Christianity is to become more like Jesus and less of who we are when left to our own devices and desires--to become less like the rest of the world, less normal.
