Many of us are serving, and feel like we're sinking. We feel joyless, weary and burdened.
John Hindley shows how Jesus was telling the truth when he offered people an "easy yoke"—a way of serving him that is joyful and liberating. He explains why serving is so often joyless—and how our identity in Christ changes everything.

The tone is warm, the illustrations are both personal and applicable, and the style is so accessible.
