Description

“Brennan Manning does a masterful job of blowing the dust off of shop-worn theology and allowing God’s grace to do what only God’s grace can do—amaze.”—Max Lucado

Are you bedraggled, beat-up, burnt-out?


Most of us believe in God’s grace—in theory. But somehow we can’t seem to apply it in our daily lives. We continue to see Him as a small-minded bookkeeper, tallying our failures and successes on a score sheet.

Yet God gives us His grace, willingly, no matter what we’ve done. We come to Him as ragamuffins—dirty, bedraggled, and beat-up. And when we sit at His feet, He smiles upon us, the chosen objects of His “furious love.”

Brennan Manning’s now-classic meditation on grace and what it takes to access it—simple honesty—has changed thousands of lives. Now with a Ragamuffin’s thirty-day spiritual journey guide, it will change yours, too.

Includes a 30-Day Spiritual Journey Guide!

    Brennon caputures many points about serious issues framed in the most important issue of all - being a chrisitian is a "love affair", not a political party or the driven moral police. We share " The One" that died to be with us. Nothing can be more important.
  • Worth reading!

    For anyone struggling to understand God's Grace, i.e. how to not only know it in your head, but to understand and own it in your heart.
