| Publisher Description: Lewis tells us what we have always longed for, yet somehow knew all along...Under the guise of fiction and fantasy, Lewis has slipped into our barren psyches and aching hearts... You Are Who He Says You Are is an inspirational analysis of C. S. Lewis's Till We Have Faces, a powerful book that speaks of the painful yet beautiful journey of becoming persons. Allegorically, Lewis wrote of Queen Orual, an ugly woman who despised her femininity and was beset by identity issues. She painfully discovers that she cannot find God without embracing her true self. This internal struggle is thus both ancient and yet so relevant-especially in contemporary culture obsessed with gender identity and mired in a battle that has left us critically wounded. Just as Lewis called his readers to look up and see beyond the transient natural realm, author Nikki Felice suggests that the Spirit is calling us to see ourselves and our God-given purpose with new eyes. Although this work focuses primarily on the spiritual restoration of one's identity in Christ, it also reveals the transformational power of listening prayer and the wholeness that can be found as we joyfully allow our loving Father to tell us who we truly are. Your true self is hidden in Christ. If you want to know who you are, you must look for Him. |
