Just a Moment…
I want to heartily recommend the book, Gentle and Lowly: The Heart of Christ for Sinners and Sufferers, by Dane Ortlund. Our men’s Tuesday night study just finished discussing the book last month. Here are a few reviews from some of our men.
“The study gave a new perspective on the vastness of Christ’s love for us and a needed reminder of his passion to forgive and comfort his children, along with his deep desire for us to turn to him, especially when we feel we are at our lowest spiritually. The author was especially gifted in showing the immeasurable gentleness, humbleness and accessibility of our Lord Jesus,” Don Depoorter.
“My take home is that we really don’t appreciate and or focus on just how much the Lord truly loves us. It’s all in God’s Word, do we see it? Do we actually embrace it?” Paul Recher.
“Gentle and Lowly takes the child of God, personally, deep into the heart of God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit; and assures us of the incredible, unlimited, unearned love that awaits us there,” Nic Martin.
“A book that will move the young Christian struggling with assurance, and a reminder to older Christians going through dark times of doubt, that God is still there waiting to help them,” Bill Gilliam.
Thank you, guys. The book was wonderful as you can see. We will resume our men’s Bible studies in September. It’s a time of sharing, praying for each other, laughing and enjoying time in the Word. We will begin a study in Ephesians this fall. Stay alert to announcements coming next month. We meet from 6:30-7:30 pm on Tuesday nights. Hope to see you there.
