I am reviewing a copy of Deeper: Real Change for Real Sinners through Crossway and Netgalley:

In Deeper Pastor and best-selling author Dane Ortlund offers words of encouragement to those seeking to grow deeper in their faith.   In this book 

the author makes the case that sanctification is not accomplished by doing more or becoming better, but by going deeper into Christ himself.

This book reminds us that an idol is not simply what we worship, but what we trust.  We are reminded too that committing adultery is breaking the commandments just as committing idolatry is.

Deeper is a beautiful, yet easy to read primer grounded in the glowing center of Christianity our Lord Jesus.  It becomes easy to think that as we grow as Christians, we move on to ‘higher things’ (whatever that means!), when in fact we simply need to learn the beauty and depth of Jesus and all that he’s done for us. 

I give Deeper five out of five stars!

Happy Reading!
