Abstract

The final element of the triune nature of health relates to our mind, a battlefield of the worldview realms between our eternal spiritual nature, the natural desires and instincts of the flesh, the allure of worldly success, pleasure, and power, and the influence of the demonic realm of evil. The focus is to identify the flawed and dysfunctional thinking patterns that impede our ability to achieve our calling and purpose through the influence of fear and their related cognitive distortions such as magnification and fortune-telling. The chapter concludes with concrete guidance on identifying and remedying dysfunctional thinking patterns.
