Book Cover & Preview Text
Cognitive distortions lead us to doubt ourselves and others. They are pivotal in the pathophysiology and perpetuation of anxiety, depression, shame, guilt, imposter syndrome, and much more. They are distorted and faulty thinking patterns for which we pay a high price. Distorted thoughts cost us our physical health, mental health, relational health, spiritual health, personal and professional development. Cognitive distortions are as lethal as nuclear warheads and chemical weapons combined - detonating like bombs in our minds trying to keep us from living in the fullness of Christ, in the fullness of our purpose...They are not a gift from Christ; but rather an attack from Satan to keep us from the gifts of Christ. They are in essence weapons of mass destruction. They make our problems big and God small.

About the Book
Distorted thought patterns are used by Satan to keep us trapped, bound, and stuck. From Abraham to Jonah to David, it is obvious how distorted thinking patterns have the potential to lead us to places of trouble and despair. When we drift, we often forget who God is. As a result, our problems become so big that they make Him small. Dominique Williams intertwines biblical inspiration with a glimpse into her personal spiritual journey to expose the trap of Satan in distorted thinking patterns, lean on scripture to release negative thinking and break free from the mental strongholds of Satan, and lead believers to both see and then fulfill their divine purpose. Included are twelve key principles and related scripture that can be used to combat distortions as well as a worksheet that helps believers identify current cognitive distortions and then utilize a principle to amplify the voice of God. The Little Foxes That Spoil the Vine helps the faithful understand the role of cognitive distortions in depression and lean on twelve core principles to live out God’s plan.
