Description



About the Book



J. I. Packer helps Christians to embrace weakness as he shares about his own struggles in this book of meditations on 2 Corinthians. Ultimately, Packer directs us to the ultimate source of strength and power: Christ himself.



Book Synopsis



For Christians, weakness should be a way of life. Yet most of us try desperately to be sufficient on our own, and we resent our limitations and our needs.

Renowned theologian and Bible teacher J. I. Packer reflects on his experience of weakness--having been hit by a truck at a young age and now facing the realities of aging--in order to teach us the importance of embracing our own frailty, and also to help us look to Christ for strength, affirmation, and contentment. Find here a path from discouragement to freedom in light of our all-sufficient God.

  • Written by the author of over 40 books, including the best-selling Knowing God, a modern Christian classic
  • Encourages Christians to embrace weakness and find their strength in Christ
  • Short and accessible yet substantive and rich
