Peace Over Perfection
Do you struggle with the pressure to be a perfect Christian? Many believers, often without realizing it, grapple with a type of Christian perfectionism, striving to please God but plagued by anxiety about making mistakes. We want to do God’s will but live with a self-berating inner voice even as we seek to serve Him. Though we believe in the gospel and love Jesus, we struggle with never feeling good enough before God. How can Christians wholeheartedly pursue God without an undercurrent of guilt, fear or anxiety?
In Peace Over Perfection: Enjoying a Good God When You Feel You’re Never Good Enough, author Faith Chang addresses these struggles through meditations on God’s character, writing with nuance and care for those who seek to grow in Christ yet fear failure. She explores the Bible to show that God deals with us as in-process people, demonstrating His mercy, righteousness, and patience. By understanding His bountiful interaction with us, weary Christian perfectionists can pursue God while experiencing His love and peace. Each chapter includes prayers for specific situations and reflection questions for group discussions or one-on-one study.
