Why do Christians – even mature Christians – still sin so much? Why doesn’t God free us from that? More and more we realize sin in our lives and wonder if God is disappointed with our lack of progress. Where are the joy and peace that we read in the Bible?

Barbara Duguid directs us to the writings of John Newton to teach us God’s purpose for our failure and our guilt, and to help us adjust our expectations for this life. She approaches honestly and empathetically to raise our gaze from our own performance towards God, who is much greater than our failures – and uses them for His glory!

In this refreshing book you will rediscover the overflowing grace of God that makes the gospel really feel like good news!
