In this latest inspirational book by Butcher (Choose and Choose Again, 2016), pastor of Hope Community Church of Detroit, he tackles the kind of Christian thought that can lead to shame-based religion. Reminiscent of Margaret Paul's Do I Have to Give Up Me To Be Loved By God?, Butcher's book uses personal stories, quotes, and scripture to show how abiding in Jesus' love is enough. Feelings of shame or of not being ""good enough,"" damaging trauma, and debilitating false beliefs of undeserving love are all considered here. Butcher describes in depth how the ""just do it"" form of Christianity is ""the veiled heresy that following Jesus is simply about Bible knowledge and trying really hard."" That kind of life does not equate with being loved and living in love with God, Butcher argues, but with a form of spiritual abuse: the fear that if God truly knows all about our damaged and broken selves, how could He choose to love us? With true compassion, Butcher's words are a monument to love. Comfort food for the Christian soul.
