Discover God's plan for how we can become genuinely good - and how that process frees us from all the emotional and behavioural problems that plague us. Do you want to feel whole - but too often, feel pulled in different directions? Do you want to be holy - but think it's beyond you? We tend to associate holiness with striving and restriction - but what if a holy life were really about being set free from all our burdens?
In The Utter Relief Of Holiness, John Eldredge teaches that, rather than being a daunting or distant ideal, holiness is in fact an expression of the healing of our humanity. Eldredge believes that we can be set free from all that plagues us - the inner struggle with anger, or contempt, or habitual sins - to find the genuine goodness that is available to us in Jesus Christ. Wise, gentle and rooted in the Bible, The Utter Relief Of Holiness guides the reader along the paths God leads us to make us whole and holy - by his love.
