Matt Fuller

Be True to Yourself

Why it doesn't mean what you think it does (and how that can make you happy)

Our culture tells us that the way to be happy is to "be true to yourself". It’s posted on social media, promoted in adverts, taught in schools and, even, expressed in churches. But what does that mean, and does it actually work?

Matt Fuller explores how true happiness, wholeness and freedom can be found not by turning inwards and listening to our fluctuating feelings, but by listening to our creator and allowing ourselves to be shaped by who the Bible says we are. In the process, this book draws on a broad range of fascinating research and examples to give us a fresh biblical take on some of today's biggest hot-button issues.

By cutting through the confusion and showing us what the Bible says, this is a book to help every Christian live with confidence in today's culture.

'A sparkling and thoroughly biblical response to the siren voices that tell us to be true to ourselves. Each chapter provides profound gospel insights into our deepest longings for authenticity and acceptance. This warm and often humorous book blends a liberating biblical anthropology with culturally rich insights into our quest for identity. It deserves to be widely circulated.'

Richard Cunningham - Director, UCCF: The Christian Unions

'Matt Fuller has the ability to tap into our culture and our hearts, and then let the word of God and the grace of God expose, reorient, guide and comfort us with tremendously helpful insights. But you know a book is good when you want to side with Jesus because you’re persuaded again that his way is the best way.'

Ray Galea - Lead Pastor, Multicultural Bible Ministry

'Matt Fuller’s use of story makes him an engaging writer, and his pastoral experience and compassion are evident on every page. This book will help the reader to better understand the different voices being fed to us in our culture, and to gain a deeper love and trust for God’s freeing voice instead.'
