A personal and honest look at how the Christian gospel can speak into mental health issues and addiction
Can I break free from my eating disorder? Why do I struggle so much with anxiety? Where can I go with my shame and despair?

A New Day sees award-winning blogger Emma Scrivener moving on from the personal story she told in A New Name to provide lasting biblical solutions for those who struggle with the challenges brought by feelings of hunger, anxiety, control, shame, anger and despair.
