'There is an epidemic of insecurity in our society today. Many people are insecure and feel bad about themselves, which steals their joy and causes major problems in all their relationships.'

Approval Addiction asks why so many of us have an overwhelming need for acceptance from the wider world - and provides the key to breaking free from this addiction.

Joyce Meyer's groundbreaking book:

- Demonstrates that you can accept who you are

- Identifies the cause of our addictive need for approval

- Helps you to be released from the chains of past

- Guides you through steps to break the pattern for the future

Joyce writes from raw, personal knowledge of how insecurity and low self-esteem - stemming in her case from damaging childhood experiences - can leave us feeling constantly frustrated and lacking real peace or joy. It was through embracing the knowledge that she is unconditionally loved by God that she found inner security and the power to live her life to her full potential.
