{"product_id":"perfected-trading-shame-and-striving-for-wholeness-in-christ","title":"Perfected: Trading Shame and Striving for Wholeness in Christ","description":"\"Am I good enough?\" The question plagued Bethany's heart and mind as she drifted off to sleep each night. She worried whether her meager efforts had met the expectations of those around her, the ones in her own head, and (more importantly) the ones she felt from God.\n\nCulture answered her question with glowing affirmations. You’ve got this girl! Just believe in yourself! You are more than enough, just the way you are! Even in the church, her struggles with insufficiency and insecurity were met with true yet incomplete promises. He created you just as you are! You’re a princess in his eyes! You are enough for him! All these phrases were merely bandages covering the festering wound of how inadequate she felt.\n\nHow could she truly know if she was good enough?\n\nThrough biblical teaching alongside her own personal struggles with perfectionism and condemnation, Bethany shares how she learned to lay down her efforts to be good enough by trusting that Christ is enough for her.\n\nPerfected replaces the burdensome expectations and empty affirmations of this world with the truth that Christ has perfected you for all time. You can find freedom from your self-sufficient striving and rest in the finished work of Christ on your behalf.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0D2SJT2CM\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.B0D2SJT2CM.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Broderick, Bethany\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
