Are you a people pleaser? Are you addicted to approval from others, and would do just about anything to get that approval?

Biblical counselor Lou Priolo exposes all the prideful manifestations of this problem and, as always, offers solid, systematic Biblical solutions! Even those who feel that they do not have this problem should listen to this helpful book, because what you don't know can and will hurt you and others.
