Synopsis

Everyone craves approval, but when that desire becomes an addiction where nothing is ever good enough, it is time to step off the hamster wheel of people pleasing and seek the only approval you really need -- God's.There is a difference between being someone other people like and being defined by what others think. Some people are so addicted to approval that their lives spiral out of control creating discontent, depression, and alienation. Recovering approval addict Dawn Owens identifies all the ways craving approval can negatively impact our lives, and offers sound, biblical strategies to overcome them. Using her own and other's stories as relatable examples, Owens shares the journey to an identity found only in Christ.
