Book description
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. 'Trademark passion and personal transparency' (for
