You’re Only Human
Brazos Press, 2022
By Kelly Kapic
WHO: Kelly Kapic, a professor of theological studies at Covenant College in Lookout Mountain, Georgia.
HE SAYS: “God loves his children; therefore, by his Son and Spirit, he is liberating us from the entanglements of sin that distort our true selves, which were made for communion with the Creator and our fellow creatures.”
THE BIG IDEA: This book explores the theology behind seeing our human limitations as a gift rather than a deficiency.
THE PROGRESSION: In 10 chapters, the author lays out a path to holistic living with healthy self-understanding, life-giving relationships and meaningful contributions to the world.
“I think we have a massive problem, but it is not a time-management issue. It is a theological and pastoral problem.”
