Anxiety. Hurt. Doubt. Guilt. Shame.

Many people today are experiencing devastating levels of loneliness, anxiety, depression, porn use and shame. So many are struggling and do not know how to get free, let alone live a flourishing life.

Your struggles are not random.

They are signals that, when answered, can lead you toward a thriving life.

You may be living with unresolved hurts and constant shame, often struggling with how you see God. But God has so much more for you, and he wants you to experience healing and wholeness.

Josh and Ben can relate.

Despite a thriving worldwide ministry, Josh struggled for years to overcome the relational and emotional hurts he experienced during childhood. Then the unresolved pain of sexual abuse, an alcoholic father and a dysfunctional family caught up to him.

Growing up, Ben also experienced deep pain, trauma, and confusion. He faced bullying, mental health struggles, an addiction to porn and suicidal thoughts before embarking on a journey to discovering real solutions Christ used to set him free.

GOD HAS MORE FOR YOU

In their new book, Free to Thrive, Josh and Ben invite you on a journey of healing they themselves have experienced. They will teach you how to overcome unwanted behaviors by engaging your unmet longings and defeat anxiety once and for all. You will also discover a restored view of God that will help you overcome shame and self-doubt.

“Josh McDowell is one of the best apologists I know. This book is something a bit different though. Vulnerable and honest, Free to Thrive helps us understand the hunger and thirst for greater freedom, joy, and wholeness that aches in the deeper parts of our soul and then helps us move toward it.”
Matt Chandler
lead pastor, The Village Church, president, Acts 29 Church Planting Network

Andy Stanley

“If you’re looking for a winsome, compassionate, and insightful perspective on life’s pain, healing, and apologetics, this book is perfect for you. It’s timely, authoritative, and unique–a terrific resource that’s a must-read for the church today. Thanks, Josh and Ben, for this invaluable contribution!”
Lee Strobel
best-selling author, the Strobel Center for Evangelism and Applied Apologetics, Colorado Christian University
“COVID-19 pushed hundreds of millions of people to deeper isolation, especially those struggling with addictions and deep hurts from their closest friends and families. Free to Thrive takes you through tested and biblical steps not only to healing but to thriving too.”
Henri Aoun
strategic projects leader, North Africa/Middle East, LifeAgape International
“The pages ahead are a key to unlock a cage that many don’t realize they’re in. Others have sadly given up all hope of getting out. Through the vulnerability and expertise of two very gifted guides, God will show you a clear path so that you are Free to Thrive.”
Jonathan Pokluda
best-selling author, pastor, Harris Creek

“Our prayer is God will use this book to give you the tools you need to finally heal, to overcome the things you’ve tried to stop doing – and not just be free, but to be free to thrive.”
–Ben & Josh
