Christ Formed in You: The Power of the Gospel for Personal Change
Publisher's Description
This is a book about spiritual formation, the ‘grace–driven developmental process in which the soul grows in conformity to the image of Christ.’ The acid test of all spiritual formation is this: Are you becoming more like Jesus? Are the contours of your character being shaped by his image, formed in his likeness?
This ongoing transformation is possible for you. You can become more and more like Jesus Christ. But there is only one way: through your increasing understanding and application of the gospel. The goal of Christ Formed in You is to aid you in this process—to help you discover new depths of joy in what God has accomplished through Christ and the Spirit to deliver you from both the guilt and the grip of sin.
