Following his work on the unconditional love of God in The Wisdom of Tenderness, best-selling Christian writer Brennan Manning now turns to the life and work of Jesus to find an answer to the most pressing spiritual problem of our age: self-hatred. Manning shows how this problem is rooted in 'a script' founded in a faulty understanding of the nature of divine love and a lack of clear understanding of the person and message of Jesus. Power, moving, and inspiring, this book helps rewrite the script of self-hatred by gaining a clearer glimpse of the nature of Jesus: his healing work, stories of deliverance, liberating prayer, integrity of self-acceptance, and all-encompassing compassion.
