The Miracle of Genuine Confession

About this book

The Miracle of Genuine Confession explores the deep meaning of true confession in the Christian life. Drawing from Scripture, theology, spirituality, psychology, sociology and practical Christian living this volume shows that confession is far more than saying sorry. It is a whole-person response to God involving the head (mind), the heart and the hands. Through the 12 Hallmarks of True Confession, readers are guided to understand how sincerity, desire, hunger, remorse, contrition, prayer, faith, repentance, determination, diligence, dedication and devotion work together in the miracle of salvation (eternal life) and spiritual growth. The book also explains how confession can be understood through biblical figures, natural symbols and practical frameworks that help believers live truthfully before God. Written from personal reflection and pastoral concern this work seeks to help readers move beyond confusion into clarity, beyond empty religion into genuine relationship and beyond guilt into the saving grace and peace of Jesus Christ.
