This book addresses two misconceptions of the Christian life: what it means to "stop asking God for help" which will be called the Abiding Life and what it means to "die to self to God live His life" which will be called the Exchanged Life.

Although I attended church most of my life, I was lost: I looked at the sky and asked, "Who are you? Tell me what to do, and I will do it."

This book is for followers of Jesus who are tired, longing for the "peace that passes understanding" or the "joy inexpressible" described in Scripture. They feel “off” in their faith. They know there is something more, but they can’t quite grasp it. They keep bumping up against themselves or others. They may feel lonely and unseen and may feel misunderstood.
