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. Yet when life begins to fall apart 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 to 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.
All the while, according to Brennan Manning, God is calling us to take our masks off and come openly to him. God longs for us to know in the depths of our beings that he loves us and accepts us as we are. When we are our true selves, we can finally claim our identity as God’s children and experience his pure pleasure in who we are. Manning encourages us to let go of the impostor lifestyle and freely accept the love of our heavenly father. In him there is life, our passion is rekindled, and our union with him is his greatest pleasure.
Brennan Manning (1934–2013) spent the past 40 years helping others experience the reality of God’s love and grace. It was at the heart of everything he wrote and did. A recovering alcoholic and former Franciscan priest, his spiritual journey took him down a variety of paths. He taught seminarians, spoke to packed arenas, lived in a cave and labored with the poor in Spain, and ministered to shrimpers in Alabama. Brennan is best known as the author of the contemporary classics The Ragamuffin Gospel, Abba’s Child, Ruthless Trust, and The Importance of Being Foolish.
In this compelling and helpful book, previously published as It Came from Within!, pastor and author Andy Stanley wrestles with what he calls “four invaders of the heart”—guilt, anger, greed, and jealousy.

Many believers feel stunted in their Christian growth. We beat ourselves up over our failures and, in the process, pull away from God because we subconsciously believe he tallies our defects and hangs his head in disappointment. In this newly repackaged edition—now with full appendix, study questions, and the author’s own epilogue, “Ragamuffin 10 Years Later,” Brennan Manning reminds us that nothing could be further from the truth. The father beckons us to himself with a “furious love” that burns brightly and constantly. Only when we truly embrace God’s grace can we bask in the joy of a gospel that enfolds the most needy of his flock—the ragamuffins.

Why is it easier to obey God than to trust him? In Trusting God, Jerry Bridges argues it is because obeying God makes sense to us. In most cases his laws appear reasonable and wise, and even when we don’t want to obey them, we usually concede that they are good for us.
But the circumstances we find ourselves in often defy explanation. When unexpected situations arise that appear unjust, irrational, or even dreadful, we feel confused and frustrated. And before long we begin to doubt God’s concern for us or his control over our lives. Adversity is hard to endure, and can be even harder to understand. If God were really in control, why would he allow a tragic auto accident or a crucial job loss? How could he permit cancer in a loved one or the death of a child?
In an effort to strengthen his own trust in God during a time of adversity, Jerry Bridges began a lengthy Bible study on the topic of God’s sovereignty. What he learned changed his life, and he now shares the fruit of that study with you in Trusting God. As you begin to explore the scope of God’s power over nations, nature, and the detailed lives of individuals, you’ll begin to acknowledge his loving control. And as you come to know him better, you’ll find yourself trusting him more completely—even when life hurts.
Jerry Bridges is an evangelical Christian author and speaker. He serves in the Collegiate Mission, and has been on the staff of The Navigators for more than 50 years. Bridges earned an engineering degree from the University of Oklahoma and went on to serve as an officer in the United States Navy during the Korean War before joining the staff of The Navigators.
He is the author of more than a dozen books, including The Pursuit of Holiness, which has sold more than one million copies. His devotional Holiness Day by Day: Transformational Thoughts for Your Spiritual Journey garnered the 2009 ECPA Christian Book Award for the inspiration and gift category, and The Discipline of Grace: God’s Role and Our Role in the Pursuit of Holiness received a similar award in 1995 in the Christian living category.
