You will be encouraged to build a deep and ongoing relationship with Christ and will be guided through a process of confession and repentance to address the sin in your life. He will then be instructed in the Scriptures regarding where he needs to find security, meaning, and self-worth. It cannot be found in His “broken cisterns” (His old self-preservation mechanisms), but can only be found in His “living waters” (Jer. 2:13). Changes in the rational circle can be made by using cognitive behavioral therapy and encouraging Grant to renew his mind with the word of God. Voluntarily, he will be encouraged to set new goals and behave in a way that is in line with the Truth. Emotionally, he will be encouraged to face and feel his emotions and will be given guidelines and principles on how to respond healthily to his emotions. And finally, physically he will have to remember that his body is the temple of the Holy Spirit and that a good diet and regular exercise are important to maintain and nourish the body.
