Perceptions

Like many who spent the majority of their adult life in pastoral ministry, I logged in countless hours in counseling, working people through the damage that life's events had in their life. I discovered that sometimes one's perceived reality may not be one's actual reality. Because of blind spots and filters, sometimes it is one's interpretation of life's events and environments that create their perception. You are not shaped by your environment as much as you are by your perception of your environment. Lynn Eldridge in her book, Perceptions illustrates the truth through sharing her own past and what shaped or skewed her perception of reality. The book not only sheds light on common blind spots but also on processes to discover them and get through them. I appreciate Lynn's vulnerability to share her own struggles and the processes she worked through as she pursued her own freedom. For many, it will give some clarity to their own struggles and solutions of actions to take that really work. The reflection and action steps at the end of the chapters helps make this book very practical. For those who more easily learn through the practical illustrations of another's life, you are going to love this book. I certainly recommend it.--Dr. Rodney Hogue, Author of Forgiveness Lynn Eldridge's newest book, Perceptions: Healing from Distortions of God, Self, and Others, is a transparent journey into the revelation of what brings brokenness and wounds to the soul, affecting every area of life. Along with Dr. Randy Clark, Lynn shares with us truths that she has learned from the Holy Spirit of emotional healing, freedom, and complete peace found in living with Jesus. This is a powerful addition to your spiritual and mental health resources that I highly recommend.--Dr. Mike Hutchings, President, God Heals PTSD Foundation, Author of Supernatural Healing From the Captivity of Trauma The life and ministry of Lynn of Eldridge is a beautiful expression of God's heart to this world. Her authenticity of heart is beyond compelling and her love for God and people is both deep an enduring. Lynn is one of my heroes in the ""faith"". I am honored to endorse such an amazing daughter of God and I celebrate her life-giving words in this book .--Larry Randolph, Pastor of Peytonsville Baptist Church, Thompson's Station, TN, Pres. of Living Rain Ministries Lynn is a woman of true faith in Jesus and embodies a life of pure restoration. Perceptions explains how what we see and what we believe shape everything we are. If we get our perception right, everything else will flow from that place and fall into line. Lynn never gives up on people because she believes exactly what she teaches in her book. I have seen her live this out first hand. Read this book with the Lord and allow Him to heal places in your heart you didn't know needed healing, to set you free and to give you the correct perception of your life so you can live in the freedom Jesus paid for you to live in.--Will Hart, CEO of Iris Global
