RESTORING GOD'S IMAGE: The Narrow Gate of Healing and Transformation
by John Del Grosso
God is our refuge and our strength,A very present help in trouble. (Psalm 46:1)
This is not another self-help book. If you have picked it up believing that change will be easy, you will be disappointed. Rather than promising easy transformation through new behaviors, its purpose is to help you struggle through the agonizing pain of true transformation.
Christians often speak of crucifying the flesh. Galatians 5:24-25 states, “And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.” But how many of us really embrace this, and welcome the experience of pain when it occurs? Many churches and self-help books are trying to help us avoid pain, rather than seeing it as a catalyst for transformation, a necessary experience in our journey to freedom in Christ. Paul speaks of losing everything “that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of his sufferings.” Clearly, pain is part of the package.
There is a path that leads to life. It is narrow, as Jesus said, but He guarantees our success as we walk in it; He’s already shown us the way. In fact, Jesus Himself is the way: “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me” (John 14:6). He does not abandon us to our own abilities. By His power within us, He enables us to accomplish more than we can ask or imagine. Reading this book will not help you to become better, but will help you decrease, as Christ in you increases. You’ll learn to do this through the scriptures. True Christian counseling should be the way of the cross—the way to life—the way of God.
