The Enemy is constantly seeking to fill your mind with destructive and harmful thoughts—whether of fear, insecurity, anxiety, shame, temptation, envy. . . . It's all too easy for Satan to manipulate his way into a seat at the table intended for only you and Jesus, and to try making himself at home in your mind trapping you in cycles of discouragement and emotional exhaustion. It's an ongoing battle, but one you can win!
In Don't Give the Enemy a Seat at Your Table, bestselling author and pastor Louie Giglio offers a powerful biblical message rooted in Psalm 23 to help you win the battle for your mind and reclaim the peace and emotional healing God intends for you to experience.
This transformative Christian book reveals how the enemy works through lies, fear, temptation, and toxic thinking to distract you from God's truth and purpose for your life. Through practical encouragement and Scripture-based insight, Louie Giglio helps readers recognize destructive thought patterns, renew their minds with biblical truth, and develop lasting spiritual and emotional resilience.
Whether you are struggling with anxiety, insecurity, overthinking, spiritual warfare, burnout, or feelings of defeat, this book provides hope-filled guidance for overcoming the mental battles that often feel impossible to escape.

Recognize the lies fueling fear and discouragementBreak free from toxic thought patternsRenew their minds through the truth of ScriptureStrengthen their identity and confidence in ChristFind peace in difficult seasonsOvercome spiritual attacks and emotional exhaustion
Perfect for personal growth, Bible studies, or devotional reading, Don't Give the Enemy a Seat at Your Table is for readers searching how to handle spiritual warfare, experience emotional healing, renewing their mind, and overcoming negative or intrusive thoughts through faith.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In this impassioned but limited testament, pastor Giglio (Not Forsaken) closely reads Psalm 23, especially the verse "he prepares a table for me," to suggest ways to find freedom from suffering by focusing on Jesus. While stressful situations can tempt people away from faith, he writes, God promises peace in the midst of strife. For Giglio, thoughts and feelings of envy, despair, or inadequacy are signs of evil intruding on God's grace. Giglio suggests that by recognizing false thoughts, praying, and replacing negative thoughts with scripture, readers can gain peace. Unfortunately, there is a striking lack of consideration of mental illnesses, such as depression, that can cause or exacerbate such feelings. His evocations of the suffering he's dealt with, meanwhile, tend toward the perfunctory, as when he depicts envy as the feeling of someone being angry that others have nice vehicles while he's "struggling to buy teenager a decent car." Giglio writes glowingly about his vision of God's plan for each person, but his encouraging words fail to rise above simple platitudes.
