It is that beauty that alone has the power to overwhelm all the ugly you will encounter along the way. I have read no book that more carefully, thoroughly, and tenderly displays Christ's heart than what Dane Ortlund has written. As if I was listening to a great symphony, I was moved in different ways in different passages but left each feeling hugely blessed to know that what was being described was the heart of my Savior, my Lord, my Friend, and my Redeemer.

They understood that we suffer because of sin. Dane Ortlund masterfully handles a treasure trove of Puritan wisdom and deftly presents it to the Christian reader.

With a solid grasp on both the effects of sexual assault and of redemptive history, the Holcombs thoroughly identify sexual assault and its aftermath while calling the reader to let even such a painful, hideous act be a part of their story of redemption through Christ's sufficient work on the cross.-\u003cbr\u003e--\u003cstrong\u003eMonica Taffinder\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eco-founder and counselor, Grace Clinic Christian Counseling\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e-This book helped us understand the painful emotions that go along with the particular suffering of sexual assault.

Jesus' death and resurrection apply not only to my sins, but also to the burden of someone else's sin against me. My identity is no longer as 'damaged goods.'
