Owning How You Show Up In Life
Being Your BEST for God: Owning How You Show Up in Life is a Christian personal growth and discipleship book that combines biblical teaching with practical self-development. It encourages readers to intentionally cultivate Christ-like character by taking ownership of how they think, behave, lead, and interact with others.
The book is built around the BEST framework:
• Believe – Build your life on biblical truth and ensure your beliefs genuinely shape your daily decisions.
• Expect – Understand what God expects of you while trusting His promises and faithfulness.
• Strengthen – Develop the unique gifts, talents, and character God has given you.
• Together – Live in community, recognizing that God designed people to support, encourage, and strengthen one another.
Rather than focusing solely on theology, the author emphasizes personal responsibility and spiritual maturity. Each chapter explores an area of life that readers are encouraged to “own,” including:
• Behavior and character
• Emotional intelligence
• Managing emotions and moods
• Habits and self-discipline
• Thought patterns and mindset
• Anxiety and accountability
• Compassion and humility
• Forgiveness
• Spiritual disciplines
• Faithfulness
• Gratitude
• Physical health and self-care
• Financial stewardship
• Purpose and calling
