Synopses & Reviews
If you've been fighting a losing spiritual battle, it's time to give up. Bow the knee. Wave the white flag. And turn yourself over to the King of kings. The truth is, your salvation, your initial 'surrender' to Christ, was just the starting point. You will never know real joy, real peace, real success until you learn what it means to live a fully surrendered life, to continually say 'no' to self and 'yes' to God. Choosing the pathway to full surrender will transform your perspective, set fire to your soul, revolutionize your life, and give the spiritual victory you have sought for so long.

It's easy to sing 'All to Jesus I Surrender.' It's hard to surrender all to Jesus. In this book, Nancy helps us understand the cost of full surrender to Jesus Christ. If you hunger to grow your spiritual life to the next level, you owe it to yourself to read this book.
