Seated with Christ: Living Freely in a Culture of Comparison
Autor Heather Holleman Joni Eareckson Tadaen Limba Engleză Paperback – 5 oct 2015
"As Christians find themselves trapped in the rhetoric of platform, influence, retweets, and fame, they need a ladder out of the fray."
Many of us live in a prison of self-absorption.Shackled withpride and despair, we compare ourselves to others constantly in our frantic, unending pursuit of perfection.
"Seated with Christ"gets to the root of this behavior and charts a path to freedom.
Scripture says that God s beloved are seated with Christ in the heavens (Eph. 2:6), treasured by Him and given a place at His table.Heather Holleman unveils what this means for us.
It means we walk out on the fight for acceptance. We quit measuring ourselves to others.We leap free from cycles of shame.
Securely-seated people can ask themselves hard questions about their lives; they can deal with sin, grieve their losses, and move forward in hope. From a position of security andself-forgetfulness they can joyfully do the good works prepared for them uniquely. They can even celebrate the successes of others.
"Seated with Christ "is a deeply personal, liberating look at a glorious truth: that we have a place at God's eternal table."

Calm, connected, and secure the power of seated living
Many of us live half alive. We compare, compete, self-analyze, and self-promote in our endless, busy pursuit of perfection.
Seated with Christ heralds a new kind of living. If it s true what Scripture says, that we are treasured by God and given a place at His table, then all we need to do is to take our seats. Heather Holleman shows us how.
Joyfully sharing her journey to seated living, she invites us to walk out on the fight for acceptance, stop comparing ourselves to others, and leap free from cycles of shame. She tells of a confidence that lets us celebrate the seats of others and be perfectly content with our own.
Take your seat and live simply, freely, fully because of Jesus, for Jesus, and in the love of Jesus. Quit trying: be free.
