Maybe I'm The Problem: A Practical Guide to Overcoming Self-Sabotage (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798218814694)

Maybe I'm The Problem: Healing The Man In The Mirror is a truth-telling, grace-drenched journey through the mirrors of identity, formation, and healing-written especially for those who smile publicly while screaming privately. Through 14 transformational chapters, the book walks readers through the process of unlearning toxic narratives, confronting false identities, and embracing the truth of who GOD says they are. Grounded in Scripture and rich with real-world examples, the book centers Black men and women-those often silenced or overlooked-inviting them to reclaim their worth, voice, and purpose. Each chapter explores a different "mirror moment," where readers are challenged to see themselves through the lens of GOD's design rather than societal distortions or self-inflicted wounds. With a Christ-centered foundation and a Liberationist heartbeat, the book calls for the courageous work of reformation-tearing down the inner saboteur and building a self that is healed, whole, and holy. It boldly declares that worth is not earned through performance but given by the CREATOR from the beginning. This book doesn't offer perfection-it offers process. And by the final chapter, the reader is empowered to say with clarity and confidence: "I have nothing to prove. I am who GOD says I am."
