The Good Gift of Weakness: God's Strength Made Perfect in the Story of Redemption

“Eric Schumacher takes us on a tour of the entire Bible as he explores the theme of weakness. We see that weakness is a pervasive theme in Scripture, imprinting on us that without Christ we can do nothing. We need the sovereign work of God the Father through the atoning work of Christ the Son and the applicatory work of the Holy Spirit every day. Schumacher communicates this truth both biblically and personally. I am grateful for the biblical faithfulness and the honest vulnerability that characterize this wonderful book. When we are weak, then we are strong in the Lord. ”

“Reading Eric Schumacher’s book, The Good Gift of Weakness, was a paradigm shift for me. It challenges everything most Christians think about—well, everything. It is thoroughly Biblical, surprisingly comprehensive, and amazingly authentic. If you’re looking for a book that will impact your life with freedom, joy, and grace, this is it. I rise up and call Eric Schumacher blessed for having written this book. ”

“I would expect any book written by my friend, Eric, to be filled with deep wisdom and Biblical clarity. What I didn’t expect was the depth of his own weakness Eric has transparently put on display for us. We need more men who have the strength not only to preach about Christian weakness, but who are willing to say, “That’s me! I’m weak! And it’s God’s good gift to me that I am.” It’s my privilege to recommend his work to you. ”
