Becoming a Christian is not a magical enterprise by which we are automatically transformed into better people. We must...

Imagine a stormy day at sea, your ship yielding to a relentless wind, pummeled by crashing waves, subject to the awesome force of nature. A force that is both fierce and majestic. A power that is nothing short of furious.
Such is God's intense, consuming love for His children. It's a love that knows no limits, and no boundaries. A love that will go to any lengths, and take any risks, to pursue us.

It has been over twenty years since the publication of “The Ragamuffin Gospel”, a book many claim as the shattering of God's grace into their lives. Since that time, Brennan Manning has been dazingly faithful in preaching and writing variations on that singular theme —
"Yes, Abba is very fond of you!"
But today the crowds are gone and the lights are dim, the patches on his knees have faded. If he ever was a ragamuffin, truly it is now. In...
