Publisher's Synopsis
As Christians, we are called to imitate the character of God. We are commanded to pick up our cross and follow Jesus. We are charged to obey many seemingly impossible commandments. And we are often confused by the complexity of scripture on these difficult to understand and even more difficult to achieve requirements. Living in a broken world, Christians often cry out for mercy. But, do we really know what God's mercy entails? In I Desire Mercy, Dr. Carlin makes clear our desperate need for mercy and shines a convicting light on our responsibility to also be merciful to others. With scriptural evidence, he emphasizes how working out our own salvation with fear and trembling requires the committed Christian to love mercy.
