Abba's Child

The Cry of the Heart for Intimate Belonging

De: Brennan Manning

Narrado por: Dan Cashman

Is an imposter robbing you of God's love?

Many Christians have bought into the lie that we are worthy of God's love only when our lives are going well. If our families are happy or our jobs are meaningful, life is a success. But when life begins to fall through the cracks and embarrassing sins threaten to reveal our less-than-perfect identity, we scramble to keep up a good front to present to the world - and God. We cower and hide until we can rearrange the mask of perfection and look good again.

Sadly, it is then that we wonder why we lack intimate relationships and a passionate faith. Yes all this time God is calling us to take the mask off and come openly to Him. God longs for us to know in the depth of our being that He loves us and accepts us as we are. When we are true selves, we can finally claim our identity as God's child - Abba's child - and experience His pleasure in who we are.

Brennan Manning encourages readers to let go of the imposter lifestyle and freely accept our belovedness as a child of the heavenly Father. In Him there is life, our passion is rekindled, and our union with Him is His greatest pleasure.

My eyes and heart had been crying so much recently, this book brought so many things together for me, you would have to sit down with me to have me explain this; Yet the first person I should sit down with is Yeshua, my beloved… I need to talk to HIM! Because now I do have an ear for how this book was written and how each chapter had me rewinding to listen to what I just heard ! I don’t know if my words here are making any sense but they make sense to me and that is good and this book is good very good Forgive my punctuation as I am expressing my heart and feelings . I am very happy this book is out and about and I will share it with others because it is a true gem… And I am looking forward to listening and reading it again…Oh happy day !

So will you. A classic Christian testimony to love.
Not just any love but the love we can live in moment by moment.
Brennan Manning is able to show us that Christ walked WITH the Father extending such great love to all (no exceptions) and we can do so too if only we can accept who we are as the beloved.

Gentle, Thunderous love.
