The Master's Mind by Lance Hahn

Overcome your greatest battle of all

If what we think determines who we are, then why are so many of us insecure, depressed, and confused? This is not the condition God has in mind for us. In fact, the Master’s overwhelming desire is to see us full of hope, strength, peace, joy, and love. So where do we go wrong? What is the disconnect? How do we bridge the gap and overcome all the negativity we encounter?

As Pastor Lance Hahn explains, when we lose our identity, we become unanchored, tossed about on the sea of a million random influences. Between the world, the flesh, and the devil, we don’t know what to think, and therefore our lives are filled with hurt, pain, and regret. Someone is running the show in our minds and it’s not us—at least not the real us, nor the real owner. This should come as a relief.

The Master’s Mind will show you just how much God wants to strengthen your mind and enable you to rise above the noise that seeks to overwhelm each one of us. Pastor Lance knows first-hand the power that comes from a mind at rest, trusting God’s goodness despite the voices in our head. Jesus died to set us free. He made a way for our souls to be rescued from our enemies. It’s time for us to take back control of our minds, to master them and bring them back in alignment with the Master’s will. It’s time to return to the Master’s mind.

My Take:
I found this book to be thought provoking. Although good, not quite as interesting and grabbing as I had hoped. The content is really informative and helpful. Having a mind like Jesus is the goal. The author shares how important it is to have a healthy mind. We need to be Christians who live well, and to do that, we must think well. It is key that we know who we are in Christ, and who our enemy is, as well as, the tactics he uses against us. Through his lies he attempts to steal our identity. It's essential that we overcome the enemy through Scripture and God's help and our minds are paramount to that happening. 

The author provides lots of food for thought. He goes over quite a bit of information - there were times I just had to take a break and process. I could not read this book quickly as I would have liked; there was much to digest. Some of it seemed a bit repetitive at times. Of course repetition is the key to remembering. The beginning of the book kind of sets the stage, shows the problem, while the latter part addresses how to begin the process of thinking like Christ and re-training our brain. However, as with all books of this type, it is important to read and compare to God's Word, not just accept everything the author says as fact. Most of what I read, seemed to be insightful  information, but I have not yet completed the entire book - as I said, takes time to process, and is not a quick read. I do however, plan to finish in the near future.

I received this book from Handlebar to read. I was not asked to review positively.
