God s love has the power to change lives. Christians, then, should exhibit the greatest transformation of all because, rightly understood and cherished, God s love makes them increasingly more like the One who has lavished his love on them.
So why do we so often struggle to exhibit God s love? Biblical counselor Elyse M. Fitzpatrick asks one simple question: In your pursuit of godliness, have you left Jesus behind? We need to be rescued from our identity amnesia and pointed to our true identity as God s beloved children adopted by the Father, united with the Son, and empowered by the Holy Spirit.
Fitzpatrick shows how a genuine transformation of identity leads to a transformation of our daily lives. Those who struggle with either legalism or lawlessness will find encouragement to return to God s love, the source of authentic and lasting change. Study questions and invitations to further discovery conclude each chapter. Now available in paperback.
