Relentless Pursuit by Ken Gire

Relentless Pursuit
By Ken Gire
Published by Bethany House

You are not alone. Never alone. For there is a pursuer of us all. A loving, patient pursuer whom we cannot outrun, dissuade, or hide from. Relentless Pursuit is an examination of this One.

With inspiration from Francis Thompson’s The Hound of Heaven, Ken Gire expertly reveals the truth, that so many of us wrestled with for the better part of our lives. That there is a living savior whose love is a mighty unbreakable thing. A savior who is not condemning, disapproving or critical; but one who is ready to forgive and accept. One who wishes to wash all the anger, offense and shame away. To forgive us anything and everything.

Those of us who are blessed to know Him personally, can only be profoundly moved by this comprehension. Yet to be only moved, is to not fully appreciate the love that is offered. We must freely offer it in return. Who are we, sinners just like everyone else, to judge others? To condemn and ostracize?

We are none of us worthy. Yet He doesn’t ask it of us. You are loved unconditionally. You are forgiven. You are wanted. You are clean. You need only stop running. Such is the telling of the Relentless Pursuit.

I received this book free from Bethany House Publishers as part of their book review bloggers program. I was not required to write a positive review and the opinions I have expressed are my own.
