Unpunishable: Ending Our Love Affair with Punishment

This is a paradigm shifting book on relationships in our family, churches, businesses, and communities. Quite thought provoking as it forces one to look back at how you interacted with people who created huge personal and public relational messes or how you created a mess and were treated. Danny Silk walks us through how God the Father responded to our messes and shows us how to emulate His ways to recreate, restore and then thrive in our relationships. A must read.

This is a powerful way to live and exactly what the church needs in this time of hypocrisy and pride all stemming from fear of punishment. Great read!

Saved, healed, delivered, set free, revelation, forgiveness, repentance, restoration, reconciliation…walk as sons and daughters in the new covenant. Freedom from the bondage of punishment and shame.

Unpunishable put words to so many areas of my heart and life that had been difficult to bring to speech.It uncovered how much healing my heart needed in the area of seeing myself as a dearly loved Child of God, versus an orphan that had to beg or perform to get acceptance. An orphan who when I made a mistake, hurt others, misrepresented Him instead of running to Him, I would try to keep it hidden, make excuses, cover up and try to avoid anything that was difficult and required effort.I let shame and fear and desire for control keep me distant .Unpunishiable helped me no longer to be afraid to show up fully before Him in the Light of His Love. My trust in His kindness towards me and belief that He rejoices over me with singing began to ring truer each chapter of this book.I uncovered many broken places inside me and saw the roots of how they were attached to multiple lies that affected multiple areas of my relationship with the Father, with myself, my family and others.I realized that I have been living way beneath my privileges as a daughter of God. I have let shame-fear-doubt unbelief be the main narrative of my heart and mind. Unpunishable has flipped that narrative, exposing the lie and bringing forth a hope that has reached for truth and found transformation. It has brought the imbalances into the light and has given speech to words that I didn’t know how to express or live out.It has given me the permission that I so needed to step into perfect love that casts out fear. It has restored HOPE in my Father who loves me unconditionally and rejoices over me with singing.

This book is setting me free from years of suffering with thoughts of punishment. I am learning the truth of the New Covenant Jesus purchased with His blood and the finished work of the cross. I highly recommend this book to anyone needing to know the Father's love and His discipline of setting us free from sin!!!

The author gave solutions for working through marital strife and overcoming the pain of divorce

This book has changed the game of how I see myself, God, and others. I’ve grown to be less afraid of punishment and more inclined toward mercy! Love it! Would recommend!

This book is so good and lays out the best way to deal with problems and issues we all have in our lives. Keeping true to Danny’s way to always honor those in his life, but how to lovingly move forward when sin is exposed.This book is great for all form of leaders and parents. I wish I had know these principles when I was a young girl or even a parent. But l’m grateful I have them now! We have already seen the fruit of this wisdom within our family and our church!Thank you Danny for the gifts and wisdom you have shared with us.The Smith’s

Danny does an amazing job of taking the truth of Jesus’ ministry and brings it home to the front door of everyone’s life. Open the door and let this truth in!

A book I should have had years ago. This is a life changer.

So so good! Full of wisdom!

I love the reality of our culture today displayed in this book and after reading this I now have language to define what is true repentance and path way to restoration. I just love it

This book is a great follow-up after Culture of honor on a similar topic. One of the things I like about Danny is that he is not afraid to challenge people's perspective and I guarantee that he does just that again with this book.In Culture of Honor, he starts with saying that repentance and punishment are two separate things and repentance does not necessarily mean punishment. This rocked my world, so when he released Unpunishable, I had to get it so that I could understand more about what he meant by that.There are stories I have heard from Bethel Church about people who have walked through terrible betrayals in their home and church and have been walked through not just repentance, but restoration through repentance. Although I'm not sure the picture can be completed by just reading and following a book, I believe that this is a good place to start to explore the idea of repentance and what it truly means to a Christian in relationship with Jesus. I would have all of my leaders read this book and catch Danny Silk's heart for repentance and restoration.Get this book especially if you are a leader, but if you also want to have proper Godly relationships with the people in your family, too.Highly recommended!!
