Christian OCD Books...

[QUannie]

Hello,
I have been looking into books on OCD and was wondering if anyone has read any really good, Biblically sound Christian books on it?
I went to the library and found some secular books. I am much more interested in getting a Biblical view/help.

Also could you pray for me, I am struggling. Not as bad as I usually do but it is wearing me out!
The whole "What if" thing!
I keep repeating scripture and telling myself God is bigger than this!
Thanks!

"Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners" by John Bunyan is a great first hand account of someone who struggled with this before it was a diagnosis. It is not a "how to overcome ocd book," but is a great perspective. "Here I stand: a life of Martin Luther" by Roland H. Bainton has sections that deal with Luther's psychology (likely ocd/depression). Luther's self-management, although somewhat compulsive, offer great insight into how he dealt with intrusive thoughts.

Hope this helps. Marc

Thank you Marc and tytyty9! Marc i read a post you made a while back, i was going through some older posts and saw yours on this book by John B. and Martin Luther. I wrote them down yesterday! Thanks for the link! I have prayed this morning for us all! Matt. 14:14 told me this morning He has compassion on us! How great is the Lord Jesus Christ!!
