Are you tired of trying to be someone you're not? Being Real > Being Perfect is an inspiring rallying cry for Christians to let go of pretending and instead enjoy a freeing, authentic relationship with Jesus and others. Many of us spend a lot of energy-especially at church-trying to hide the fact that we're struggling. We can't share our marriage problems. Our addiction. Our sense of distance from God. In Being Real > Being Perfect, Justin Davis reminds us that God can't heal what we don't admit is broken. As he vulnerably shares his own story of redemption, Justin helps us understand: - Why being real with ourselves, God, and others leads to peace and hope - How faking perfection robs us of the transformative power of grace - What the Bible says about insecurity and identity - Step-by-step ways to overcome our fear of being vulnerable If you're tired of trying to prove yourself, if you're tired of wondering where the real "you" went, if you're tired of knowing information but not experiencing transformation-discover the vibrant spiritual life you long for as you embrace the truth that being real is greater than you can imagine. Many Christians work so hard to appear to have it all together that they miss the opportunity to experience and offer God's grace. This thought-provoking book explores why being real with God and others enriches relationships, soothes anger and resentment, heals regrets and shame, and frees us to grow spiritually as we turn to the God who loves to heal the brokenness we bring Him. Justin and his wife, Trisha, are the authors of Beyond Ordinary and the founders of RefineUs Ministries. Justin speaks at churches and conferences across the country. He and Trisha have three children and live in Indiana
