Publisher's Description
Our hearts are made for unswaying allegiance to a king and a kingdom, a concept that Jesus talked about more than any other. Yet every day, the false kings of anxiety, approval, comfort, image, escape, power, accumulations, self-sufficiency, supremacy, and shame plot to reign over our hearts instead. Their lies about the true king are so subtle and insidious that we rarely recognize them, and we go on living with divided loyalties that stall our spiritual growth, infect our relationships, and hinder our witness. If you want to find freedom from the forces vying for your heart, let Christine Hoover equip you for the fight. In this approachable yet provocative book, she helps you root out your own misplaced allegiances so that you can live wholly as a subject of the king who made and redeemed you.

“Jesus commands us to love God with all our heart. And that’s what Christine helps us to do in this penetrating and vulnerable book. I’m sure I won’t be the only reader who relates to Christine’s halting efforts to live joyfully for King Jesus. And I’m sure I won’t be the only one encouraged by her testimony to God’s faithfulness as he keeps his promises to never leave nor forsake us.”
“heart, and welcomed us into the very front row of her tensions. In a self-sufficient, driven culture we would much rather disengage, preserve our energy, and focus more on ourselves than lean into the tensions of growing pains. She challenges us to not only recalibrate our hearts with the kingdom of God but first start by openly confessing our desires to please ourselves more than pleasing the very God who saved our wretched souls. As a pastor’s wife, church planter, and a woman familiar with the exact struggles Christine has openly shared with us, I am deeply convicted and challenged to rethink and reassess my desires and priorities. This book will encourage, admonish, and lovingly remind us to realign our allegiance to King Jesus.”
“Through vulnerable stories and candid confessions, Christine’s words had us nodding along. But she also gently beckoned us to evaluate our affections, giving Christ our full allegiance—the only One who can truly satisfy. These pages are truth-filled and encouraging! We’re grateful for this book.”
