Synopsis

Everyone, Christians included, knows what it’s like to feel isolated and alone. We’ve all wondered if anyone really understands us or truly cares about our lives. The good news is that we aren’t alone, and the gospel tells us why: Jesus, the Son of God, came to earth to be forever united with his people—to be one of us. In fact, he has so united himself with us that the Bible says we are literally “in” him. Far from being alone and lost, the Incarnation changes everything for the Christian. Writing with everyday readers in mind, Elyse Fitzpatrick fleshes out the practical implications of our union with Christ and gives us confidence that we are not alone in this approachable and applicable devotional book.

Goodreads review by Angelyn on February 14, 2015

I don't know why it took me so long to slog through this book, but I found the writing dry and repetitive. The author often says the same thing in multiple ways to explore every nuance of her thoughts. This makes it harder to follow the progression of her points. Early in the book she insists that J......more

Beautiful discourse about the life of Jesus and how he gave everything and suffered much for our sake.

I was especially touched by the th......more
