As Abbaâs children, we need only to define ourselves through His Son, just as the apostle John didâas one beloved by God. Through this timeless devotional, author and speaker Brennan Manning brings you from a lukewarm, distant faith to being close enough to lean against Jesusâthe Great Rabbiâand listen to His heartbeat. Adapted from the best-seller Abbaâs Child, this daily reminder of the Fatherâs relentless love will help you accept your identity as a child of God as you grow in spiritual formation.
