Paperback. Condition: Good. Jesus is different. Go and do likewise.Many Christians have become comfortable with letting the world mold them instead of being set apart by God.

By God's grace, we are not only dissatisfied by sin but also increasingly uncompelled by conventionality.So resist the allure of acceptability. Get back to the unsafe roots of our faith. Be equipped to surprise the world with the Good News it didn't even know it was waiting for. Challenge the way things are by living a life that has been truly set free by Christ.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. If ever there was a time for an innovative missionary effort in the West, it is now.The great paradox of our age is that while the need for the gospel has seldom been greater, the relevance of the church to the culture at large has seldom been less.

Paperback. Condition: Good. 12th Annual Outreach Resource of the Year Recommendation (Missional Church)2014 Best Book of Missional Theology, from Byron Borger, Hearts and Minds BookstoreThe story of Christianity is a story of incarnation--God taking on flesh and dwelling among the people he created. God appointing and sending people as his body, his hands and feet. Disciples of Jesus bearing the good news even as they bear the marks of his passion. Whatever Christianity is, it is at least a matter of flesh and blood and the ends of the earth. And yet so much of contemporary Christian culture is rooted not in incarnation but in escape--escape from the earth to heaven, escape from the suffering of this world, escape even from one another. Christianity is increasingly understood as something personal, conceptual, interior, private, neighborless. If Jesus was God incarnate, the church is in danger of being excarnate. Michael Frost expertly and prophetically exposes the gap between the faith we profess and the faith we practice. And he offers new hope for how the church can fulfill its vocation: to be the hands and feet of Christ to one another and to our neighbors, to the ends of the earth and to the end of the age. …
