Free to Thrive
In Free to Thrive, Josh McDowell and Ben Bennett blend hard-won wisdom and youthful energy to present biblical, time-tested, and research-supported principles for overcoming hurts, struggles, and hindrances to a whole life--a life of spiritual, emotional, and relational wholeness. A companion streaming video study is also available.
Learn how to uncover your unmet, God-given longings and satisfy them in ways that lead away from brokenness toward spiritual wholeness.
Many people today are struggling with unprecedented levels of anxiety, hurt, doubt, guilt, and shame. Medical and mental health professionals confirm that much of the dysfunction and disconnectedness we experience in life stems from unresolved relational and emotional hurts. These hurts leave us with unfulfilled desires that we seek to satisfy through unhealthy behaviours and relationships. Yet, our struggles aren't random; they're signals that, when answered, can pave our way towards a thriving life.
In Free to Thrive, Josh McDowell and Ben Bennett invite you on a journey of healing and will teach you how to overcome unwanted behaviours by engaging your unmet longings. With a blend of hard-won wisdom, compassion, and youthful energy, they present:
- Biblical teaching.
- Up-to-date neuroscientific research.
- Time-tested principles.
- Personal stories of deliverance from addictions and unwanted behaviour.
- Practical tools.
- Opportunities and questions for deeper reflection and self-evaluation.
No matter what you are struggling with, it is possible to experience the spiritual, emotional, and relational wholeness that God wants you to have—and live the thriving life you were made for.
A companion streaming video study is also available.

About the Author
As a young man, Josh McDowell considered himself an agnostic. He truly believed that Christianity was worthless. However, when challenged to intellectually examine the claims of Christianity, Josh discovered compelling and overwhelming evidence for the reliability of the Christian faith. After trusting in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord, Josh's life changed dramatically as he experienced the power of God's love. After his conversion, Josh committed his life to telling a doubting world about the truth of Jesus Christ. After studying at Kellogg College, Josh completed his college degree at Wheaton College and then attended Talbot Theological Seminary, graduating magna cum laude with a Masters of Divinity. Working with Campus Crusade for Christ and founding the youth outreach, Josh McDowell Ministry, Josh has shared the gospel with more than 25 million people in 125 countries. He is the author or co-authored of 147 books.
