Betsy Guerra argues that personal development is necessary to live out one’s faith. She claims unresolved emotional issues (being easily triggered, anxiety, relational resentments, unforgiveness) prevent someone from acting in love or walking in faith; conversely, doing the inner work requires faith—faith in God, faith in oneself, faith in the process and in guides.

Chapters

I always say that you cannot live your faith if you don't do the personal development work. Because if you're a walking trigger, you're not going to be acting in a nice way. If you have a lot of anxiety, you're not walking with faith, you're walking with fear. If you. If you have relational problems and resentments and unforgiveness, then you cannot be love. So if you don't do that work, you can't live your faith. But you can't do that work without faith. You need faith in God, but faith in yourself, too. Faith in the process, faith in the people guiding you.
