The Gift of Being Yourself
“[Benner] offers a clear and practical outline for those seeking to begin the lifelong process of knowing God and knowing themselves in an authentic way…Benner explains the difference between authentic self-discovery and most psychological approaches…His discussion of accepting our flaws and sins as a necessary step to transformation is a model of lucidity. Although self-knowledge is the subject, it becomes clear that transformation is the ultimate goal both of this book and of the journey it invites readers to begin.”
