Publisher's Synopsis
You will, no doubt, have been taught from a young age that you should love God and others before yourself. In truth, this doctrine enslaves us and can have long-lasting, detrimental effects. In Yourself First, Others Second and God Last, Sidney Strachan suggests that God's will, at its core, is for us all to prosper and live in good health. It is not blasphemous to love ourselves first and when we do, the success we crave will follow. Yourself First offers new insight into breaking the mindset and ideologies that are holding us back and preventing us from achieving our goals. The author draws on personal experience and includes stories of reflection to encourage readers to look past the teachings of religion and examine God's will in a new, more productive light. Find out how to overcome self-hatred, false religious and social programming and achieve your full potential, for only when you love yourself, will your love for others and God flow with ease. This ground-breaking new book challenges us to reflect on who we truly are, why we're stuck in unfavourable situations, where to find the Kingdom and how to apply our newfound knowledge to break free from our restraints. During an era when there is so much hatred and misinterpretation in the world, Yourself First offers a life-changing alternative to age-old doctrines.
