Title: Thoughtful words from a wise, seasoned pilgrim . . .
Product review: Jerry Bridges is such a gift to the body of Christ, and this book is another example of his great teaching gift.We have been using this book in our small group, and it has been both powerful and painful. Painful because folks who have been Christians for many years are finding themselves wrestling -- many for the first time in their lives -- with the idea of the sovereignty of God. Powerful because Jerry dares to declare the truth of the Bible: that God is indeed sovereign and yet we are still 100% responsible. If you've grown up hearing a man-centered, theologically shallow presentation of Christianity, you need this book!Having been through great suffering himself, Jerry is especially qualified to invite us to trust God . . . even in the midst of our own pain and doubts.
