Inhaltsangabe:

A New York Times bestseller!

Brokenness doesn't only find us in the big things—things like illness, hardship, or grief. It can find you in the everyday. Learn to walk in a way that glorifies Jesus and receive freedom, not beyond your fear and pain, but within it.

We are fragile and we know it. Sometimes, living with Christ in a messed-up world feels less like victory and more like walking uphill. Ann Voskamp, the New York Times bestselling author of One Thousand Gifts, sits at the edge of her life and her own unspoken brokenness and asks: What if you really want to live abundantly before it's too late? What do you do if you really want to know abundant wholeness?

This one's for the lovers and the sufferers. This one's for the busted ones who are ready to bust free, the ones ready to break molds, break chains, break measuring sticks, and break all this bad brokenness with an unlikely good brokenness. You could be one of the Beloved who is broken—and still lets yourself be loved.

Ann desperately wants you to know:

• God is attracted to the broken, the sin-sick, and those in need
• The very things people are most ashamed of are the exact broken things that draw God to his people
• You can live in the face of your unspoken pain
• You can discover and trust this broken way—the way to not be afraid of broken things

 

The Broken Way is simple in presentation, written in Ann's unique style—a new way for desperate Christians in need of a fresh revelation of the grace of God.

"Healing balm for an aching heart." —Lysa TerKeurst
