Rosaria is an intelligent human being.
Format: Hardcover
Rosaria writes as such. She walks through lies we are told by our culture here in America and beyond. How to look at sin rightly and touches on her own experiences throughout the book. She is raw and open. However, I do think some of her definitions are not really what we use for some of it. Got me a little confused. I used it to walk my bible study through these lies. There are a lot of questions, but you get out what you put in, so I think it was well worth the time and energy it took to read, reflect and respond to the text. It has biblical backing, and I was thankful for her honesty where she has made public statements before, and has since learned more and no longer thinks that way. It has to be hard, and has been hard. To live her experiences. Such a huge cost to following Jesus. May her ministry and book sales be blessed, as this book should be in church libraries around the world. To know how to gently and lovingly interact with those who are living differently than we.

Most Important book for Christians
The sincere convert accepts a complete Christ. He loves not only the reward, but the labor. He seeks not only the benefits, but the burden of Christ. He takes up the commands, yes even the cross of Christ. In contrast, the unsound and perhaps unsaved person takes Christ by halves. He is all for the salvation but not the sanctification. He is all for the privileges, but neglects the person of Christ..They desire salvation from suffering, but do not desire to be saved from sinning. Christianity is not about us being perfect but our faith in the One that is perfect. From Rosaria's perspective of being a feminist, liberal Professor, and living as a lesbian, she gave up everything for Christ. She believed the lies and found the truth that set her free. She has found meaning of the pain of what she gave up within the promises of God's word. She also understands how the lies will destroy families, communities and the only hope we have is the truth. I struggle with the difference of acceptance and approval. I believed that they were the same. They are not the same. I believed the lie and struggled because of it. Acceptance involves listening, caring for, and praying and sharing the truth of God's word. Acceptance helps you in the landmines of lies. You know the difference of the lies and the truth. Acceptance means living in the reality and not fantasy. Rosaria in great detail explains how we can love thru acceptance. Approval is not kindness and pulls us away from the reality and truth. The five lies are as follows: Homosexuality is normal Being a spiritual person is kinder than being biblical Christian Feminism is good for the world and the church Transgenderism is normal Modesty is outdated burden that serves male dominance and holds women back. These lies are the root of what keeps people from God. It is the truth that Rosaria brings forth thru her own experience, study, family, and church that is a shining light of hope. Lies do not bring hope and we need the hope of the truth that Christ testified. It is not about our feelings but the truth. We need the truth of the gospel. The gospel is not a get out of jail card but a realization that there is more. A life that is abundant in worship and awe of the God that saves. Praying that others will be blessed by this book. A special thank you to Crossway Publishing and netgalley for the aRC and the opportunity to post an honest review.
