In his sequel to The Ragamuffin Gospel bestselling writer Brennan Manning shows how true and radical believe in God can turn out to be our lives.

Manning, beloved writer and spiritual teacher, shows us how believe in God can turn out to be our lives and open us up to deeper experiences of grace and love. In Ruthless Trust, he turns his focus from furious love to radical believe, revealing the ways in which believe renews our faith and help us grow.

We suffer from the disease of melancholy, the sickness of self-hatred, the darkness of doubt. Yet, writer Brennan Manning sees the place of our worst despair as a tangible starting point for the treatment: a ruthless believe in God. In his sequel to The Ragamuffin Gospel, Manning pries us loose from our shame, our mistakes, and our doubts and encourages us to let go and believe God–ruthlessly.

It’s been 40 years since writer Brennan Manning was “ambushed by God” and on the far side of despair himself. As a gutter-alcoholic who was completely broken, he found an unshakable believe in the love of Christ for him as he was then, not as he could be or is now.

Authenticity with God is critical in developing this believe relationship. In his own inimitable voice, Manning tells us, “Raw honesty with Jesus about our doubts and anxieties, our lust and laziness, our shabby prayer life and stale religiosity, our mixed motives and divided hearts, is the risk we take in the certainty of being acceptable and accepted. It is the full and mature expression of invincible believe.” Through the years, this believe ripens into confidence and bears certain fruit, such as gratitude to God. But it isn’t all the time easy, he admits. “Ruthless believe is hanging tough at nighttime nights, when we are plunged into desolation but know that absence of God is only apparent.”

For writer Brennan Manning–and for us, if we choose–ruthless believe is not just a concept, it’s an approach to life. As Manning observes, “Ill winds may blow, more character defects may surface, sickness may visit, and friends will surely die, but a stubborn irrefutable certainty persists that God is with us and loves us in our struggle to be faithful.” Now, that’s ruthless believe. You will not fail to be moved. –Cindy Crosby
