Over the past few years of leading Catalyst, overcoming issues, lies, and barriers has become a central skill for me as a leader. During that time Ive watched as Clayton has been doing that very same thing, with great success. I just wish he had written Overcome earlier so I would have had this amazing playbook to help me along the way!

Tyler Reagin, executive director of Catalyst

If you have experienced life for any time at all, then you know the battle that rages in our minds is very real. I am so thankful for Clayton, who has provided us with a biblical game plan to identify the lies we tell ourselves and a framework to process the toughest faith questions we face. This book is a brilliant resource that can lead us to life-changing breakthroughs as we seek to renew our minds and become more like Christ .

Overcome is probably Clayton Kings best book to date, and thats saying something. In it he plays the role of a spiritual counselor. He helps the reader identify the spiritual lies that have held us down and articulates the spiritual truths that liberate us from those lies and their devastating consequences. If you are a Christian who wants to live a freer and truer life, this is the book for you.

Listen carefully to my friend Clayton King as you read his wonderfully written and practical book Overcome . It will help you overcome fears and misperceptions that afflict all of us as he deals with real-life issues punctuated by real-life examples. One of my favorite sections of the book discusses suffering. King says it well: If your suffering wont go away, it might as well go to work. I love that! Listen to this and many other practical points that can help turn your life around and help you overcome!

Tony Nolan, evangelist, author, and mentor

We Christians all too often fall prey to axioms for living disguised as reasonable presuppositions that could not be further from the truth. In this book, Clayton reveals them for what they aredeceptive liesand points us to the truth and grace of Christ that challenge us to live instead by authentic faith.

Evans P. Whitaker, PhD, president of Anderson University

I highly recommend reading Overcome . Clayton is a tremendously effective and authentic communicator of Gods Word. Weve all bought into the lies that have held us down, and as Clayton states, Its like chasing a unicorn. Overcome is transparent and presented in a way that links us to the practical biblical truths that set us free. I have been blessed by reading it and know you will be too.
