"Grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ." —2 Peter 3:18 How do Christians grow? Few question the call of the Bible to grow in godliness, but the answer to exactly how this happens is often elusive. In this book, Dane Ortlund points believers to Christ, making the case that sanctification does not happen by doing more or becoming better, but by going deeper into the wondrous gospel truths that washed over them when they were first united to him. Drawing on wisdom from figures throughout church history, Ortlund encourages readers to fix their gaze on Jesus in the battle against sin, casting themselves upon his grace and living out their invincible identity in Christ.

God’s plan might not be plan “A” or even plan “B,” but it is a better plan for wholeness and wellness—a Plan BE. Denny Hanrahan spent many years as a Project Manager on the performance treadmill, striving to obtain results and claw his way ahead, only to find emptiness and depression after several major setbacks. At the end of his rope, he surrendered to the hand of God, and in doing so discovered a new plan of freedom and joy—not for how to do the next thing, but for how to be. In Plan BE, Denny Hanrahan explains that depending on one’s will, effort and determination may accomplish tasks in the short-term, but it may also prevent that person from discovering God’s direction for their life. According to Denny, God is more interested in an individual’s character than their performance, and He longs for his people to trust Him with their lives, instead of operating in our own strength. Plan BE guides Christ-followers to prioritize time with God and seek spiritual growth and understanding, in order to serve the world like Christ, with a spirit of freedom, peace and joy.
