Free yourself from persistent sinful habits—once and for all

Do you have a sinful habit you just can’t overcome?     Have you confessed the same sin over and over, only to fall into Satan’s grip once again?     Do you tell God how close you are to holiness—if only he would take this temptation from you?   *           *           *  Simple willpower isn’t enough when you’re struggling against anger, anxiety, addictions, sexual temptations, and other common problems. Bert Ghezzi, author of Getting Free, insists that the power of the Holy Spirit — and only that power — is strong enough to overcome these deeply rooted difficulties. Best of all, this engaging and practical guide shows how you can tap into the Spirit’s power now.   Ghezzi, the author of many popular Catholic books (including Voices of the Saints), helps you see exactly what you’re up against in dealing with these problems. He details how you can and must be vigilant against temptations, and points the way for you to experience real freedom from evil influences. His advice, which is firmly rooted in the wisdom of the saints, helps you gain the Spirit’s power both in your individual spiritual life and in your relationships. You’ll learn how to trust Jesus more and to control your thoughts — as well as how to let go of grudges and how to place your dealings with others on a firm Christian footing. Say goodbye to those nagging problems for good as you learn:   Sexual thoughts: when they’re sinful — and when they aren’t Seven often-neglected aids God offers to help you resist sinful impulses  Simple tips on how you can take stock of your problems without growing discouraged The one thing you must do — or you’ll certainly lose all your battles against sin "Willpower Christianity": why relying on your will to get your life in order is so common — and so dangerous "The flesh": what St. Paul means when he uses this term — it’s not what you think!

But if you haven’t made sure you’re properly on guard against temptations, you’re setting yourself up for a spiritual disaster of immense proportions. No matter how devoted to Christ you are, temptations are going to come to you. That’s why How to Resist Temptation is essential reading for every serious Catholic. The author, Fr. Francis J. Remler, C.M., helps you prepare yourself so that you’ll be ready when temptations begin to assail your soul.   Fr. Remler gives you the benefit of his expertise as a confessor and shepherd of souls, as he shows you how to identify and guard against common misunderstandings of what temptation really is and what it is not — misunderstandings that can paralyze your spiritual growth. He details ways you can recognize the elements of temptation — and be on guard against often-unrecognized causes of individual temptations. He reveals how you can keep the memories of your past sins from troubling and tempting you now, and clarifies why God allows temptation to exist in the first place. He even explores the role of the demonic in day-to-day temptations — with firm faith in God’s power. A marvelously encouraging and optimistic book, How to Resist Temptation even contains useful directions on how you can — believe it or not — actually benefit from temptation, and how you can learn from others’ examples as you fight against temptation. So the next time the siren song of temptation starts to sound in your ears, don’t try to tough out the struggle alone — call on God’s ever-plentiful grace, and go to battle against sin armed with the wisdom of How to Resist Temptation!   How to Resist Temptation Father Francis J.
