"This is not just one more "christianized" self help book on self-esteem. Beginning with God's design in our creation as divine imagebearers, it diagnoses the full gamut of spiritual and emotional factors which deface that image and produce a sense of worthlessness and low self-esteem. Best of all it contains the divine prescription - practical suggestions for restoring it so we can stand tall as God's redeemed children. It is the integration of Scripture and psychology at its best."
David Seamands, Pastor, Counselor and Author


"A landmark book on self-esteem and the Christian life. Important reading for anyone wanting to improve his/her sense of self-worth from a Christian perspective. Easy reading, though provoking, practical and encouraging. Reading it would be a significant step toward building a healthier and happier marriage and family."
H Norman Wright, Christian Marriage Enrichment


"Rarely does a book come along that has within it the power to transform lives... This book doesn't talk about fixing up the external you - instead the focus is upon allowing the Holy Spirit to take the information and apply it to your heart, changing you from the inside out. I believe that there is a special anointing on this book that enables the reader to leave the past behind and embrace the full liberty of becoming more like Christ. We began using Dr. Day's book as a textbook for our Discipleship classes in 1996, I have been privileged to watch year after year as lives have been transformed by its teaching."
Cheryl L. Harper, Dean of Students, Capital Bible College, Sacramento, California


"I'm so glad for Larry's book. He makes the connection between bilbical fidelity and personal reality. His discussions of the image of God are right on target. He has gained enourmous wisdom as he has applied the image concepts in many lives over his years of counseling. Now the fruit is available for all of us. This book is God's gift to all of us who want to see healing in hurting people." Gary Breshears, Ph. D, Professor of Theology, Western Seminary, Portland, OR
