The Lies We Believe

Renew Your Mind and Transform Your Life

By: Chris Thurman

Narrated by: Henry O. Arnold

In a world that is veering dangerously off course from what it calls “truth” comes a classic work that unmasks the lies we unwittingly believe, lies that destroy us and ultimately damage our emotional health, relationships, and spiritual life.

In this completely revised and updated edition, psychologist Dr. Chris Thurman guides the listener through the lies we believe about ourselves, relationships, life, men, women, and, most important, God. He then unpacks the twelve essential truths for emotional health and the truth about God—the ultimate source of Truth.

This easy-to-follow guide to renewing the mind helps identify problem areas and the midcourse correction needed in how we view ourselves and our world. With biblical support, this timeless classic is required listening to help develop the mind of Christ and be able to experience the abundant life.

Discussion questions are available in the audiobook companion PDF download.

God knew I needed this!

God put this in my path at exactly the right time.
I ordered a printed copy and the workbook to go back and read along with the workbook.

Jaw Dropping Truth

This book is sulk full of truth. The truth sets you free... but it hurts first. A must read!

Fantastic!!! I was almost instantly delivered from expectations in the worst way!

From Lies We Believe:

One of the most crippling lies I carried as a divorced single mother was the expectation that he would show up the way I thought he should. I didn’t realize it at the time, but that expectation was poisoning my mind and stealing my peace. I was waiting on support that was never guaranteed, taken away, or dangled over our heads through emotional manipulation, and the weight of that hope deferred was breaking me.

When I finally released that expectation and placed it fully in God’s hands, something shifted. I stopped parenting from a place of disappointment and started raising my children in hope. God became the Provider I had been subconsciously demanding someone else to be.

Despite his choice of limited involvement, God blessed my children to graduate college—and with little debt. Letting go of the lie didn’t leave us lacking; it positioned us to receive more than I imagined.

So good! Worth rereading again and again.

Incredible. Full of golden nuggets of wisdom. I plan on rereading it again, back to back.

Outstanding and profound Truth

I first discovered Dr. Chris Thurman at a Fearless mom lecture that is put on by our church Lake Hills. When I heard him speak on just a few subjects in this book I was deeply touched. I knew I just had to read it. His book has helped me in so many ways but the most important would be growing a deeper connection with the Lord our God. I have shared this book with as many people as I can because I believe there is something for everyone in this book. I will be reading it again very soon as I know this is an ongoing battle to practice humility and not believe the father of lies. Thank you Dr. Thurman from the bottom of my heart.
