When You Are Weak: How Boasting in Jesus Makes You Strong
Ebook
Overview
Only in the gospel of Jesus Christ does your weakness provide the platform for God's glory and grace. Jesus uses your weaknesses of sin and of circumstance to gloriously display the truth that his grace is sufficient for you and that his power is made perfect in weakness. When You Are Weak guides the reader to explore the practical theology of 2 Corinthians 12 and to usher you unto the green pastures of God's transformative grace. God uses the "thorns of the flesh" experienced in this life to bring you by his sovereign, never-letting-go love into greater communion and fellowship with him so that he might become your greatest joy and treasure. When you are weak, boasting in Jesus makes you strong!
"I love this book! If you have things fairly together in your
life, don't struggle with obedience and sin, are a strong,
competent, and gifted person, you don't need this book. But if
you're normal (that is, weak and needy like me) this book will put
gasoline in your engine, maybe even change your life. Brian Cosby
has given Christians a gift--and he does it with humor, refreshing
authenticity, and biblical clarity. After you read the book, give
it to a friend."
--Steve Brown, Reformed Theological Seminary
