Escaping Our Fallen Nature

As the fall of this tree following an ordinary weather event surprised its community, revealing that the roots beneath the surface had decayed, the minor turbulences in our own lives will often reveal that the foundation on which we have built our lives has severe deterioration just beneath the surface also. It is when we come to realize that our falling flat on our faces was caused by our corrupt hearts that many of us will then look outside of ourselves for an escape. The scripturally based explanations in this book, plus the stories of how God always provides a way of escape, inspires us to acknowledge the only way of us successfully escaping our fallen nature is exchanging it for a new one. Escaping Our Fallen Nature will challenge us to examine our hearts to see if we have this new nature, and if we do, discerning which one is in control. While exposing the lies that have hindered us from getting free, this book will cause us to appreciate our new nature's ability to generate a power that will outlast our troubles, defeat our temptations, erupt our joy, and grow our assurance of eternal life.
