Does God love me, even when I have failed Him and hurt those I love? In God Loves Me? Finding Assurance Through the Lives of Saints Who Sinned, I consider biblical people whose failures were serious, sometimes devastating, yet whose stories also reveal God's mercy. Their sins were never made harmless. The question is whether their failures exhausted the reach of grace. Through these lives, I examine repentance, forgiveness, perseverance, and the grounds of Christian assurance. The answer does not rest in a flawless personal history, but in the sufficiency of Jesus Christ. God forgives the sinner, not the sin.
