Counselor and author Edward M. Smith demonstrates the effectiveness of a revolutionary approach to freeing people from the emotional pain that comes from lifelong fears, shame, false guilt, and anxiety. The method helps individuals who suffer deep hurts to let the Holy Spirit speak a healing word to them, dispelling the lies in their memory that cause the pain. The book is an introduction to theophostic ministry, which takes its name from Greek words meaning God and light. The ministry's name sums up its dramatic healing power because it illuminates the darkness of troubled souls with the light of Christ.
