Understanding Baggage

Baggage has gotten a bad rap. We think it''s all bad. We think it makes us less likely to have good, healthy relationships today. But baggage isn''t just the bad stuff that happened to us in the past. It''s the lessons we''ve taken from the pain we carry. It''s how what we''ve been through has actually made us stronger and more capable than we imagine. And it''s how we''re going to make our current relationships work.

Transforming Past Pain

Far from minimizing past pain, pastor Ike Miller shows you how to go through the baggage you carry from a difficult childhood and pull out the good stuff. The intentionality you''ve developed. The empathy you''ve gained. The trust you value so highly. Miller shares from his own past in a dysfunctional family impacted by alcoholism and divorce, and his present as part of a healthy and loving family, to illustrate how to stop letting your past sabotage your present.

Discovering Riches Within

You''ll find no platitudes or pat answers here. Rather, you''ll discover untapped riches of experience and knowledge you already have that can make your relationships thrive and change the course of your life and legacy.
