Boastfully Broken: A Christian Drug Addict’s Fight for Freedom

by Blake Rispens

Daily, we experience the reality we aren't who we portray ourselves to be. We live in the brokenness of a fallen world with the affects taking root in the deepest parts of who we are. Rather than hide and mask the many weaknesses and frailties we experience as humans, there is another way. In Boastfully Broken, author Blake Rispens highlights how a Christian who struggles with substance abuse began discovering what would really bring hope to a hopeless situation. While hiding weaknesses brings temporary relief, it only leads to continual failures down the road. True grace and power come from a seemingly counterintuitive to be happy and boastful about what makes us weak. Boastfully Broken challenges your deepest beliefs about who you are and who God says you are, and it discusses how to practically deal with those besetting weaknesses you'd rather not talk about. God's way of overcoming your most intimate of weaknesses may be a surprise to you. And it's in that space where you finally find what you've been looking a power and grace that specifically deals with your deepest brokenness.
