The Ragamuffin Gospel by Brennan Manning
If you don't believe in being saved 100% by grace hold on to your hats. Maybe this book isn't for you but then again I think this book is exactly for you! Manning has a sharp, no-nonsense approach to the most wonderful news of all. God loves you exactly as you are. You don't have to do a thing to earn His love or favor. He has given all to save you and He is pursuing you with his "furious love" as Manning so artfully phrases it. In the pages of this book you will meet a God who is far different from what a lot of us have grown up with. This God wants to save you. This God wants to make you whole. This God offers a forgiveness that transforms us for our own sake not to make us worthy of His love. Please take note of that last point. His forgiveness transforms you...You will not remain the same. This God's love is bigger than anything you could ever imagine. This God's love is enough. Period. End of story.
