Synopsis

"To me, to live is Christ." —Philippians 1:21

Can Christians ever "win" if the Christian life is a drudgery of ups and downs? Where only some days we conquer our sinful desires, and only sometimes we succeed at loving unconditionally?

No. That's counterfeit success, if any is found in such a life at all, says Charles Trumbull in Victory in Christ. "If you have to work for your victory, it is not the real thing," he says. The true essence of living a full Christian life means we quit trying. Instead, we let Jesus Christ live His life through ours. This book reveals the tremendous freedom that is for every believer who truly releases control, and learns to rely 100 percent on the Lord.

His niece, Elisabeth Elliot, wrote a number of books now considered classics, including Through Gates of Splendor and Shadow of the Almighty.

Powerful I love this book. The author creates a great desire to live a victorious life. Also, he gives hope that Christians can have the victory. The last chapter on the perils of the victorious life is very important. I have read several books about union with Christ, and I can't recall any others......more

Great read! Great advice This book teaches us about the great victory we have in Christ not the discouraging and broken life we can be prone to love. Even as a Christian. Gods salvation leads us to eternal life but also victory in this life.......more
