Weakness is the Way: Life With Christ is our Strength
by J.I. Packer
This comparatively short book with its strange title delivers a powerful blow to the rampant triumphalism that has infected much of the Bible-believing world. Using Paul’s second epistle to the Corinthians as his principal resource, J. I. Packer has once again provided us with both the theological depth and practical wisdom necessary to live in a way that pleases and honors Christ. - Sam Storms
Product Description
For Christians, weakness should be a way of
life. Yet most of us try desperately to be sufficient on our own, and we
resent our limitations and our needs.Renowned theologian and Bible teacher J. I. Packer reflects on his experience of weakness—having been hit by a bread truck at a young age and now facing the realities of aging—in order to teach us the importance of embracing our own frailty, and also to help us look to Christ for strength, affirmation, and contentment. Find here a path from discouragement to freedom in light of our all-sufficient God.
I just purchased and I'm anxiously looking forward to consuming it soon. Any thoughts?
