  • Description

    As a culture, we have a love-hate relationship with perfectionism. We reward perfectionists for their insistence on setting high standards and their tireless efforts to achieve them. But perfectionism is linked with a host of destructive patterns, including anxiety, workaholism, and avoidance of risk. In Picture Perfect, counselor and author Amy Baker examines the deeper motives and fears that drive perfectionistic behavior and shows how Scripture exposes our need for Christ rather than merely urging us to "lighten up."

    Drawing on twenty-five years of counseling experience and careful engagement with the Bible, Baker explains how Christ's perfection changes motives, beliefs, desires, fears, anxieties, and goals. Readers will discover that God's grace, not improved performance, is the answer to the aching sense of "not enough." This book offers compassionate, gospel-centered insight for anyone trapped by perfectionism and practical help for moving toward dependence on Christ.
