From the Back Cover

God is utterly faithful: that's his nature; he cannot lie.

For us, that means

· no sin is too awful for him to deal with, and our salvation is secure
· because he's kept all his promises to us in the past, he will keep them in the future
· he will come again and take us to be with him - for ever

The certainty of God's faithfulness brings comfort, joy and security. It motivates us to repent of sin, avoid evil, continue in God's service and extend grace to others. Because God is faithful, we can be faithful, both now and for the long haul. When life is uncertain and unfair, we have to hold fast to God, pressing on to become more like Christ every day.

This study guide provides a big view of God, and shows us how to grow daily in faithfulness and grace.

'A rich feast to help deepen our wonder, gratitude, and trust in the faithfulness and kindness of our loving God.' Mark Greene

'Whether you are in the throes of suffering or simply charting a course through our increasingly secularized society, I'd heartily recommend this.' Jonny Ivey
