Where the Soul Finds Fullness - Anne Dutton on Assurance & Joy: Daily Devotions with Dead People
Description
Where does the soul find true satisfaction? How can we know we are truly saved? And what does lasting joy in Christ actually look like?
In this Christmas Advent devotional, Cass from Her Theology introduces us to Anne Dutton — one of the most prolific and courageous female theologians of the 18th century. Born in 1692, Dutton wrote extensively to encourage believers struggling with doubt, fear, and assurance of faith.
In this episode, Cass reads from a powerful letter Anne Dutton wrote to a brother in the faith who was wrestling with whether he truly belonged to Christ. With remarkable warmth and theological depth, Dutton explains how a changed heart, new desires, and growing dissatisfaction with worldly pleasures point to the regenerating work of God.
More than that, she lifts our eyes to the beauty of Christ Himself — the One who alone can satisfy the soul, fill it with joy, and assure believers of His unfailing love.
