Help for those struggling with perfectionism and guilt in their Christian walk.

Many Christians, often without even realizing it, struggle with a type of Christian perfectionism. We strive to please God but are plagued with anxiety about making mistakes. We want to do God’s will but live with a self-berating inner voice even as we seek to serve him. We sincerely believe the gospel and love Jesus but struggle with never feeling good enough before God.

How can Christians wholeheartedly pursue God without an undercurrent of guilt, fear, or anxiety? How can imperfect people experience God's peace while seeking to obey his perfect standards?

Author Faith Chang addresses the struggles of her fellow "Christian perfectionists" through meditations on God’s character. With nuance and care, she writes for those who seek to grow in Christ and live for God’s glory yet live in fear of failure. She explores the Bible to show that as God deals with us as in-process people, he is far more merciful, righteous, and patient than we may have imagined. As we consider how he interacts bountifully with us, the weary and scrupulous Christian perfectionist will be freed to pursue God while experiencing his love and peace.

There are prayers between each chapter for specific situations Christian perfectionists face, such as “A Prayer for When You Feel You’re a Fake.” Reflection questions are included for those listening to the book in small groups or one on one.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

i was given this book by a dear friend. faith chang touches on many important elements through these pages, like how many of our anxieties reveal a misunderstanding of the love of God or the His providence and ability to work even amid our mistakes. but my favorite part was the end, when she reminds the reader that someday, all of the Christian’s anxiety and struggling will come to an end. when we meet God, He will finish the work He started in us, and we will be who we were always meant to be: perfect, like Him. a beautiful, deeply gentle book. Five stars.
