In this hustling, image-forward age of opportunity, we feel more anxious than ever.

Yet God loves his people and can use even our messy lives and struggles for his glory. Fitzpatrick shows us how to better search and know our hearts, long for our gracious Savior, and resist and crush our false gods. Included are questions for further thought.

But God's anger doesn't devolve into manipulation or trying to control others to get his own way. Instead his anger is good and redemptive.

What would you be willing to give up to gain the presence of God in your life again? Many of us sign up for a physical detox program, thinking that if our bodies are healthier, then we're healthier.
