Becoming: We Become What Behold

You were never meant to become more by striving harder.From the very beginning, humanity was created for something far more beautiful.Before sin. Before shame. Before performance. Before religion.There was communion.Becoming is an invitation to return to God's original design for humanity; not through self-improvement, but through beholding Christ.Journey from the Garden of Eden to the Cross, from formation to consecration, from simply knowing about God to living in intimate communion with Him. Along the way, discover how Scripture reveals one consistent truth: we become what we behold.Through rich biblical insight, Hebrew word studies, historical context, and deeply personal reflection, Antoinette Vlietstra invites readers to slow down, lift their eyes, and encounter Jesus in a fresh way.This is not another book about trying harder.It is a call to stop striving.To behold.To be transformed.Inside you'll discover: - God's original design for humanity before the Fall- Why beholding, not striving, is the pathway to transformation- The biblical meaning of communion, consecration, and abiding in Christ- How the Holy Spirit forms Christ within us through continual fellowship- What it means to live from identity instead of performanceWhether you have walked with Christ for decades or are longing to know Him more deeply, Becoming will gently lead you beyond information into encounter.Because transformation doesn't begin with striving.It begins with seeing Him.
