Restored: 8 Truths For Freedom In Christ Paperback – June 2, 2023

This book is amazing. An absolute must own. Mitch lays out a perfect foundation to change your life and your attitude by following his RESTORED acronym. Everything in this book is backed by scripture and it is very well written. Mitch gives great examples and teaches you the steps instead of just telling you. He even responded to my personal email when I needed to tell him something. If you buy this book have a highlighter ready. A+, thanks Mitch!

The teachings in Restored have changed my life forever. Times still get tough but the practices and advice in this book have changed the way I look at my relationship with God. Applying what I have learned has helped me more readily deal with the obstacles encountered daily. Understanding how to restore my relationship with God has helped with all my relationships. This is an excellent read and resource for anyone looking to find a blessing and a new level of peace in their lives. After you read it you will realize just how close Father God has been your entire life. Read and share a copy with the people love.

If you are looking for a practical, Biblical-based source for experiencing peace and freedom in your relationship with God, yourself, and others - this book is for you.Mitch Griffin lays out eight principles underneath the R-E-S-T-O-R-E-D acronym that exposes how and why we experience breakdowns in our relationships and who is to blame. Hint: it isn't you.RESTORED stands for Relationships, Enemy, Separation, Thoughts, Obedience, Repentance, Exercises, and Doorpoints. Each principle builds off one other and exposes the strategies of our enemy, Satan, and his kingdom to cause separation and breakdown in our relationships.While gaining knowledge and understanding, this book provides easy-to-follow (and again, Biblical-based) instructions for taking your life back. Another Hint: it won't happen overnight.As he mentions in the "Exercise" chapter, 'We must habitually practice to in discernment.' Diligence and practice are nonnegotiable requirements for freedom. But instead of feeling burdened by the responsibility, Mitch's relatable and Scripture-heavy expositions, combined with the eight practical truths' embolden and encourage you to begin your journey. I am grateful to have this as a resource to turn back to when I feel stuck.

I really liked it. He explains things in an easy to understand way and gives good examples. He also has a way of explaining scriptures in a way I have never thought about before. My favorite parts were the chapters on Relationships and Doorpoints. Both were thought provoking and made me want to learn more. I also like the questions at the end of the chapters. I have read other books on this topic, but found this one very easy to follow.

I have spent the majority of my life wondering why I just couldn’t seem to get it right. When I became a born again Christian the “sins that go before” the ones that everyone could see from a mile away seemed to disappear through the grace of God. Those sins “that followed after” the ones that were less obvious seemed to cling to me like a bad odor. This book has helped me to see who my real enemy is and given me an easy to follow Biblically based framework of how to conduct spiritual warfare and overcome the enemy. I would advise anyone who can relate to the apostle Paul when he wrote “I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do” to read this book and apply the principles it contains.

I have set through Mitch Griffin’s RESTORED teaching twice in a small group setting and once by telephone sessions. He was also my pastor for several years and I consider Mitch and his family dear friends. I learned something significant in each of these personal teachings with him but reading the book was the most beneficial for me.I’m sure having heard the RESTORED teaching three times helped but reading the book is where my breakthrough came. In the small groups I would miss a session or two or would not be completely honest with my feelings. Also, I am a very visual learner so I comprehend more of what I read. I could also say, “WAIT” let me read that again!As I finish reading this book today I realize the doorprint that set the course for my life happened 50 years ago. It opened the door for the enemy to gain entrance into my relationships all of these years. I can’t wait to see how God redeems this but I am confident that HE will RESTORE what the enemy has stolen.I am planning to buy each of my three sons a copy of this book. This teaching has the ability to impact generations of families. It can impact not only my sons lives but my grandchildren and great grandchildren. Thank you, Mitch Griffin, for writing RESTORED. May God bless you and your family!

I would highly recommend this book for any Christian who is struggling with negative thoughts of self worth or with relationship issues. Recognizing how the Enemy operates and how he seeks to break down our relationships with God, others, and even our own selves can help us to deal with habitual, negative thought patterns. The author takes the reader carefully through each step of the RESTORED process and helps us to see our Father as the good and loving “Daddy” that He truly is! After reading this book I realized that I had been participating and agreeing with thoughts that were from the Enemy. My Father says that I am loved, chosen, and destined for great things. Any thought that doesn’t agree with who He says that I am is pure insanity! I choose to listen to God and resist the influence of the Enemy! One of my favorite quotes from the book is “Turn the channel and shift how you think. You may need to change the channel 10,000 times a day. But you can do it. You’ve got the power to change what you’re thinking about.” There are tools for life altering freedom and restoration offered in the pages of this book.
