For as many times as I've personally recommended this book to others, I cannot believe I have not yet given a public review of it! Truly, this is one of the most helpful and impactful books I have ever read. We as believers must understand Christ's heart towards us if we are ever going to fully rest in Him. If you have not read this, find it online and get it. I guarantee you will be blessed!
"Jesus is not trigger-happy. Not harsh, reactionary, easily exasperated. He is the most understanding person in the universe. The posture most natural to him is not a pointed finger but open arms."
"That Jesus is friend to sinners is only contemptible to those who feel themselves not to be in that category."
"The Christian life, from one angle, is the long journey of letting our natural assumption about who God is, over many decades, fall away, being slowly replaced with God's own insistence on who he is."
