Have you ever felt like an inadequate Christian and wanted to give it all up? Why I (Don't) Want to Give Up the Christian Faith is a theological reflection on just that problem. The author has recently felt like a complete failure as a Christian. She even doubted her own salvation. The truth, however, is simple. No one can perfectly live the Christian life. The only person who has lived a life without sin is Jesus Christ himself. This is why we need a return to the gospel, rather than encouragement to try harder. This book is a reminder that Jesus Christ not only lived a perfect life, but did so on behalf of sinners. It's not time to give up the Christian faith, but it is time to give up focusing on ourselves. Instead, let's look to Jesus and accept the rest he offers.
