Unpunishable

Ending Our Love Affair with Punishment

De: Danny Silk

Narrado por: Danny Silk

Living with humans is messy. Our children make messes. Our spouses and friends make messes. So do our coworkers, bosses, pastors, and presidents...and so do we. Messes are scary, painful, and offensive. And whether we're dealing with the pain of a personal failure, the frustration of a disrespectful child, the devastation of a major betrayal, the stress of a workplace conflict, or the fallout of larger social injustices, classically we react the same way - with fear, shame, and punishment.

These reactions are understandable...but they don't do anything to fix the problem. In fact, they only perpetuate a culture of fear, unforgiveness, retribution, and disconnection. Jesus came to show us a better way to respond to human messes - the way of repentance, reconciliation, and restoration. This way removes fear, shame, and punishment from people's lives, empowers them to deal with the root of their problems, and equips them to build a new lifestyle of walking in the light and protecting connection with God, themselves, and others.

Unpunishable is a road map for walking out repentance, reconciliation, and restoration in our own lives, leading others in this journey, and creating punishment-free cultures of love in our lives, relationships, families, churches, and organizations.

Powerful message of truth

This mindset is truly that of our amazing Father God. Thank you for ending my love affair with punishment and helping me to be the leader that loves much and restores connection.

The message

Is a great and very helpful book when you are looking to remake yourself and break yourself from repeating the same problem over and over again.

INCREDIBLE READ

I don’t write reviews but this book is a must for all Christian leaders. Very practical, yet soo rooted in the gospel

Life Changing & Convicting

I gave 2 stars on performance because there were a ton of glitches and audio variations throughout the book.
However!
This was an incredible read. I picked it up in the midst of a trial where I would be widely viewed as the victim. It left me apologizing to my offender and realizing how my fear led to a cycle of punishment. There's even conversations in my household now about how we need to adjust our parenting based on this principle.
It's a hard read, and the first chapter was upsetting to read while attempting to heal from
A very fresh wound. But if you're willing to not bypass the Bible and truly dive into how to be more Christ like in this area, you'll be better for it.
