Stop trying to earn what Jesus already finished.
If you've ever felt like you're not doing enough, not holy enough, not disciplined enough-or simply not enough-this book is for you. Nailed It! is not another how-to guide for Christian living. It's a bold invitation to step out of the exhausting grind of religious performance and into the freedom of God's grace. You're not called to strive your way toward perfection. You're called to rest in the One who already nailed it-literally and spiritually.
In a world filled with spiritual noise and endless advice about "getting closer to God," Nailed It! cuts through the confusion with a clear, gospel-centered message: Jesus didn't just die for you. He died as you. And that changes everything.
Through biblical insight, real-life stories, and a refreshing dose of humor, Brandon Ball-pastor of Church Unlimited in Birmingham, Alabama-shows how many believers unknowingly stay stuck in a mix of grace and law. They know they're saved by grace, but then try to stay righteous by effort. The result? Burnout. Shame. Disillusionment. But it doesn't have to be that way.
This book invites you to discover the finished work of Christ in a way that transforms how you see yourself, your faith, and your Father. You'll learn how to:
- Walk in true freedom without fear of falling short
- Understand the Bible through the lens of the cross
- Distinguish between the Old and New Covenants
- Embrace your identity as fully forgiven, perfectly righteous, and deeply loved
- Experience the joy of living from victory, not for it
Brandon writes with the heart of a pastor, the mind of a theologian, and the tone of a trusted friend. He doesn't sugarcoat truth, but he won't bury you under guilt either. Instead, he consistently points to Jesus-the One who fulfilled the law, ended religion's reign, and gave you His righteousness as a gift, not a goal.
Nailed It! is packed with powerful scripture, relatable stories, and grace-soaked wisdom that will resonate whether you're new to faith or worn out from years of striving. Each chapter is a breath of fresh air that reminds you: the gospel really is good news.
"Perfection is God's standard. Jesus nailed it. And then He handed the reward to you."
You don't have to work your way into God's good graces. You're already seated in them. If you've ever wondered whether you're doing enough to please God, it's time to discover that Jesus already did everything. This is more than a book-it's a personal invitation to rest, rejoice, and live like someone who's been perfected by grace.
