Imperfect People

“Christians aren’t perfect, just forgiven,” the saying goes. That’s true, but many Christians struggle to accept both their own imperfections and God’s forgiveness. This devotional will encourage imperfect Christians with the stories of imperfect people from the Bible. Learn from the accounts of folks like Sarah, who laughed at God’s promise of a child Joseph of Arimathea, who followed Jesus, but secretly out of fear John Mark, who deserted a missionary trip and caused a rift between Paul and Barnabas Peter, whose up and downs warrant multiple readings Martha, stressed out and irritable with Jesus in her home The good news? Every one of them—and many like them—overcame their shortcomings to accomplish great things.

Give Yourself Some Grace shares two wonderful truths: you are not alone in your struggles, and God is always happy to forgive. It will encourage you whatever your age or background.
