Review
Rating: Unrated
While I was on a silent retreat in a monastery one year, this book struck a deep chord in me and created some space to let God just love on me. Anchored in the biblical witness of God as loving Father, Brennan Manning insists that the most important thing we can do is learn to define ourselves as beloved children of God. I agree. My own experience is that self-acceptance flows from knowing this as my core identity. The entire book deserves a slow reading but is worth buying just for chapters two and three.
