No more dragons

If I'm honest, Flatirons was the first place where I began to sense God tapping on my shoulder. He did that in large part through Jim; as such, this book feels like home.

The wonder of this book is that with his usual candor, charm, humility, and poise, Jim shares Jesus' truth. And through Jim, Jesus speaks louder than ever: “I don't hate you; I love you and I want to be with you always.”

The process of being freed from a dragon hurts, both in the moment and in life to come. But as this book drives home again and again, we never have to endure that process alone. Christ — who understood the pain — chooses to be with us. He never leaves us alone.

Thank you, Jim, for allowing God to speak through you. It hasn't always been easy — sometimes, it's been downright infuriating — but through it all, it's been worth it.

If you read one book this year. Read this one.
