I regularly use the principles in Contentment to Go with soldiers just back from Iraq who have had a variety of war trauma experiences. Over the years I have counseled people who have suffered sexual, emotional and physical abuse of all manner. They report the healing effects of learning to receive the love they thought was long gone or they no longer thought worthy of hoping for. It has helped them overcome the affects of the trauma, not just cope with it. God sets us free through his principles according to his timing and will.

Preparation
I have been busy tweaking our website at Contentment To Go and getting it ready for search engines. Because of that, I haven't taken the time to post to the blog. But I'm here now and want to let you know that the book is worth the $14.99 it costs. I know I'm a bit prejudiced, :>) but it really is worth it! I have suffered from clinical depression for most of my life, and the material in this book has been quite helpful to me. Plus, lots of work (for years) went into putting it all together and polishing it up, getting it ready for its debut (which happens April 14). It really would be a shame for you to miss the book and not learn what it has to teach you. Pick up a copy and let us know what you think.

Contentment To Go Synopsis
Do you want to be miserable? Chances are, you don't The truth is, everyone wants to be contented in life, but most of us choose the wrong ways to find it. How? We try to earn contentment. We think that if we can just "get it right" that we will be happy. You know, live in the right place, have enough money, work hard enough, have good relationships ... of course, those things never work for long, even if they do materialize. That emptiness still remains.
We're Reverend Terry Sovinsky, MSW LICSW and Susan Pavilkey, authors of the new book, Contentment To Go: Because the World Doesn't Deliver! This book shows you that there's good news: an abundant life of contentment is possible despite your circumstances!
Contentment To Go teaches you how to follow the Biblical command to renew your mind and receive God's love. Written for seekers and Christians alike, the book uses the Bible to explore the dichotomy between our natural inclination to earn love and the Godly call to simply receive his grace and how that duality impacts our daily behavior.
Terry is a marriage and family therapist who has used this material in his practice for the more than 30 years. In the book, he focuses on practical ways you can appropriate the changes grace makes in your life to better deal with problems and challenges. Susan, a freelance writer, then offers everyday applications, making it easy to follow along.

Book's material used for decades ...
Terry Sovinsky, the other author of Contentment To Go, has used the material in the book for decades in his counseling career, including Christian counseling and secular social work. Many people from a wide range of ethnic, religious, cultural, and racial groups have attested to the effectiveness of the material. It is our sincere desire that others will "jump on the bandwagon" so to speak and pick up a copy of the book so that they can be helped in their search for contentment. It's not true that bad circumstances mean you have to be miserable. True contentment is possible despite circumstances and this book will help you discover that fact.
