No More Hiding
Shame controls far too many of us. Worthless, inferior, rejected, weak, humiliated, failure...it all adds up to wishing we could get away from others and hide. We know what shame feels like. The way out, however, is harder to find. Time doesn't help, neither does confession, because shame is just as often from what others do to you as it is from what you have done. But the Bible is about shame from start to finish, and, if we are willing, God's beautiful words break through. Look at Jesus through the lens of shame and see how the marginalized and worthless are his favorites and become his people. God cares for the shamed. Through Jesus you are covered, adopted, cleansed, and healed.

Ed Welch always writes well, and this book is no exception. In fact, it is a book of incredible relevance for all who suffer with shame and it's effects in their lives. If you are ready to work through your shame and be healed of God, this book is the one to use. Use it slowly and prayerfully.

A helpful book
I would highly recommend this book to anyone struggling with """"shame"""". I found it very helpful in increasing my understanding of the concept of shame - it helped me to understand it more and be able to see it in my own life. It is a difficult book to get through and will take time - I think it's one of those books that you need to read slowly and take time to process each chapter. Overall I found it very helpful.
