The Broken Way: A Daring Path into the Abundant Life
Product Description
▼▲Brokenness doesn't only find us in the big things--things like illness, hardship, or grief. It also finds us in the everyday stinging moments when we feel forgotten, or under-appreciated by our loved ones, or sense the inevitable change years of living has marked on our hearts. We are fragile and we know it. Sometimes, living with Christ in a messed-up world feels less like victory and more like walking uphill. How do we walk in a way that both glorifies Jesus and bears witness to our weakness?
From the best-selling author of One Thousand Gifts comes an impassioned message: We are desperately loved by Jesus just as we are, and his love compels us to be broken open for others! You'll be deeply encouraged by Voskamp's thoughts on how God takes flawed and imperfect sinners, redeems us, and makes us useful in his kingdom.
Noteworthy: This author is one of a special group of women who writes for (in)courage, the popular online friendship community. Every day they take turns pulling up a chair to share their stories of what Jesus looks like in their every day, gloriously ordinary, and often messy lives.
If you read the (in)courage blog online, then you'll be sure to enjoy this title.

“Just had a marvelous, rich phone conversation with Ann. Wow; just wow. Sometimes in my professional life I am fortunate enough to cross paths with someone who has a good word not just for some vague "audience" out there, but also for me personally. This was one of those moments. What a gift to be able to visit with Ann by phone, and how generous of her to give me a little extra time to cover each question thoroughly.
