Deeper (eBook) by Dane C Ortlund

"Grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Saviour 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.

Union is Deeper

I like how in this book it teaches that the way forward with growth in the Christian faith is not some clever scheme but the same as it has always been growing closer to Christ
