Synopsis

Interrupted: An Adventure in Relearning the Essentials of Faith - Member Book provides the learner a study resource for this young adult Bible study. The American Dream and Christianity Aren't the Same Thing! God is in the business of interrupting what we think our lives are about. Jen Hatmaker argues that we have missed the point, confusing Christianity with the American Dream and manipulating Scripture to say what we want it to say. Interrupted is about freedom from consumer-driven Christianity and getting back to the true faith, real life, real justice, real religion. (5 sessions)

Author:
Jen Hatmaker happily lives in Austin, Texas, where the city motto is "Keep Austin Weird" (and she is certainly doing her part.) Jen lives in Austin, TX, with her husband, Brandon, and five kids—they had three the old fashioned way and adopted two from Ethiopia. She and Brandon planted Austin New Church in South Austin in 2008 where their vision is "Love your neighbor, serve your city." Her goal is to simply be a Christ-follower making an impact through radical obedience. Jen has written nine books and Bible studies, and she travels all over the country teaching God's Word at conferences for women, church planters, and young adults.

About this title

About the Author

Jen Hatmaker and her family live in Austin, Texas, where the city motto is "Keep Austin Weird," and they work hard to do their part. Jen's eight previous books include Interrupted and A Modern Girl's Guide to Bible Study. She and her husband planted Austin New Church in an economically and ethnically diverse, socially unique, urban area of the city in 2008. They are in the great- est adventure of their lives, (thrilled to find out where they have planted is known as the "church planters graveyard") and have made some incredible new partnerships in ministry. They've seen their world turned upside down as they've considered what it means to ask God how to live and not just what to do. But it's a good upside down, as part of that discovery will be the addition of two children from Ethiopia set to join the three they already have. Together they will keep Austin weird and seek to glorify God as they do.
