Publisher's summary

What a relief it would be to be set free from all that plagues us - the inner struggle with anger, or contempt, the habitual sins. Is such an experience possible? John Eldredge believes it is, and in The Utter Relief of Holiness, he shows listeners how they can be that free, through the healing work of Christ in their lives. It begins when we discover what the salvation of Jesus Christ means for our own restoration and find that holiness is an expression of the healing of our humanity.

Here is an audiobook that explores the beauty of the genuine goodness available to us in Jesus Christ, and guides the listener through the process whereby God makes us whole and holy by his love. Listeners will be relieved. Utterly.

Revival

This is an amazingly wonderful book! If the Church could grasp these life-changing concepts, we would see a revival and a spiritual revolution like never before.

Incredible! Listened to this one twice in a row!

I have enjoyed most of John Eldredge's books, especially the ones he's written from Wild at Heart on, but this one has exceeded them all. This is the first book that I have ever started over again the day I finished it for the first time. There are so many insights into holiness in this book, and many of them connected with some of my own experiences, that I had to listen again to see what I missed the first time and I found quite a few. Great book!

Life changing as always

John Eldredge has a way of bringing out scriptures that you've read hundreds of times and bringing them to light in a new way that brings you closer to God. This book that acts similar to a journey to go on, is so worth the time invested. I highly recommend this book to anyone who's looking to break the strongholds in their life and be free from the sin that plagues them! Thanks for another great one John!

Eldridge teaches me how to commune with God

Outstanding help on how to have a real personal relationship with our Lord and Savior. This book had changed my prayer life and given me intimacy with God.

Holiness Explained!

John does such a great job painting a picture of what my life could be like with this kind of holiness in my life. I feel that I know Jesus better with each of John’s books.

Jesus, give me your holiness!

The journey begins...

when you find yourself with more burdens than you can stand, go to God first and foremost, but read John's Books for a truer understanding of what God wants you to know. God's genuine deep love for you will amaze you.

Excellent! Healing and Insightful

A book that everyone should read. Makes you feel human and understand what God's love can truly do for you- as we are all broken. Loving and insightful to the power of God's true view of us and OH- how He loves us.

great read to make holiness understandable

Eldridge takes the topic of holiness and not only makes it much easier to grasp, but breaks down how much of a blessing and privilege it is to have it in your life. Pretty much any Christian would benefit from this book

Thank you John for teaching how holiness is both desirable and attainable. I’m looking forward to a deeper healing as I pursue deeper holiness.
