Aprašymas

An alcoholic falls off the wagon again after promising his family he' d finally kicked the habit. An upstanding citizen and churchgoing family man breaks down and confesses an affair to a friend. A lifelong Christian secretly wrestles with anger issues, unable to control the rage bubbling up from within. The ongoing presence of sin in the life of believers is a troubling problem, and the honest truth is pretty universal: We're not as good as we would like to be. What are we to make of this? What hope is there for full-fledged sinner-saints who find themselves redeemed yet still susceptible to sin's sway? God's answer is clear: We are not our failures. We are not our past mistakes. At the Cross, God gave the skeletons in our closet a final burial. Through faith we are forgiven, free, and loved beyond reason by the God who wrestles our old Adam to the ground, puts him in a death grip, and raises us to new life as saints. Welcome to the world of the simul.
