Seated With Christ

As Christians find themselves trapped in the rhetoric of platform, influence, retweets, and fame, they need a ladder out of the fray. Many of us live in a prison of self-absorption, comparing ourselves to others constantly in our frantic, unending pursuit of perfection. Seated with Christ gets to the root of this behavior and charts a path to freedom. In elegant, vulnerable prose, English professor Heather Holleman unveils what it means to be seated with Christ in the heavens (Eph. 2:6). It means we walk out on the fight for acceptance. We quit measuring ourselves to others. We leap free from cycles of shame. Securely-seated people experience the freedom of self-forgetfulness, joyfully do the good works prepared for them uniquely, and even celebrate the successes of others. If you are tired of comparing and competing, read Seated with Christ, a deeply personal and liberating look at how life should be.
