The Official Companion to Re-Train Your Brain With Scripture

The STILL Method Workbook

Practical Scripture-based exercises to break anxious thought patterns, renew your mind, and build a life of peace.

You may recognize the thoughts that repeatedly steal your peace—yet still feel unsure what to do when fear rises, shame speaks, comparison begins, or uncertainty asks you to imagine the worst.

This six-week workbook helps you slow that process down and meet your thoughts with discernment, biblical truth, and the presence of Jesus.

The goal is not a perfectly quiet mind. The goal is a mind that knows where to return.

A Repeatable Scripture-Centered Practice

Stop and Become Present

Pause and notice what is happening without immediately judging yourself.

Take the Thought Captive

Name and examine the thought rather than automatically believing it.

Bring the unedited fear, memory, assumption, or burden into His presence.

L

Listen to the Truth of Scripture

Let God’s Word correct, comfort, steady, or redirect you.

L

Let His Truth Lead

Choose one peaceful, faithful response shaped by truth.

This Workbook Is for You If…

You Want More Than Inspiration

  • You feel caught in anxious or repetitive thought patterns.
  • You replay conversations, predict the worst, or struggle with uncertainty.
  • You carry shame, comparison, condemnation, or responsibility that is not fully yours.
  • You know biblical truth but struggle to access it when thoughts become loud.
  • You want a practical, grace-filled process you can use in ordinary life.

A Grace-Filled Measure of Growth

Returning Is the Practice

Renewal is not measured only by whether difficult thoughts still appear. Growth may look like noticing a thought sooner, believing it less completely, responding with more wisdom, or returning to Jesus more gently.

You are not failing when you need to return. Returning is how the practice becomes a way of life.

From Mindful Christianity

A Resource from Paul and Joel Bane

Paul and Joel Bane are the father-and-son co-creators of Mindful Christianity, a ministry devoted to helping people create space to be still in God’s presence.

Their work combines biblical truth, contemplative attention to Jesus, honest reflection, and faithful next steps. The STILL Method grew from that same conviction: the goal is not to force the mind into perfection, but to help it learn where to return.
