Sacrilege: Finding Life in the Unorthodox Ways of Jesus

Sacrilege
Hugh Halter

Sacrilege: Finding Life in the Unorthodox Ways of Jesus
What does it really mean to be like Jesus? It is safe to say most Christians do not live like Jesus did, or draw even the slightest curiosity from the onlooking world. Jesus’s ability to attract people and win their hearts was directly related to how he challenged their assumptions about religion. Sacrilege exposes the patterns of thinking that have held the church hostage for years and inspires you to rethink the way you understand Scripture, family, spiritual formation, conversion, church, sin, and more. Your faith may never be the same.

It’s time for a fresh vision of the Christian life as a creative adventure. We are called to impact a culture that is preoccupied with personal peace, prosperity, and security.

This inspiring and practical book offers tools for living out this vision in daily life, with special attention given to the challenges we face in staying focused on the mission of imparting hope while dealing with our own personal issues.

God without Religion

God without Religion
Andrew Farley
Hardcover, 272 pp., $17.99
Baker Books (June 1, 2011)

God without Religion
Andrew Farley’s experience as a Christian was first characterized by self-effort as he tried to please God at any cost. His ruthless religion resulted in spiritual fatigue and disillusionment with church. Only then did he discover what relaxing in Jesus means and how enjoying God’s intimate presence can transform everyday life. Using a unique story-driven format and pulling no punches, Farley shows how the truth about these controversial issues can liberate and unify believers as we discover how to rest in the unconditional love of God.

Surrendered and Untamed
Jason Clark
Paperback, 192 pp., $13.99
Baker Books (February 1, 2011)

Surrendered and Untamed: A Field Guide for the Vagabond Believer
What would you do with your life if you were really, truly free? Would you take greater risks in order to reap greater rewards? Would you chase down your dreams? Would your life be any . . . wilder? The way to this true freedom is through complete surrender to God. It may seem counterintuitive, but then God doesn’t always work the way we would. God created you with a unique purpose and promise that only you can fulfill. But you’re not going to discover that purpose if you don’t take a risk and accept the invitation to follow God on the great adventure of faith. The journey starts here.
