Jesus didn't intend for Christianity to be a competition! Instead, the ethics of his kingdom call us to live by the principles of love---to exercise our faith to benefit others, not to advance our agendas. Stanley offers this practical guide to help us focus on Christ's priorities as we navigate the complex world of cultural divides and partisanship. 256 pages, softcover from Zondervan.
Title: Not in It to Win It: Why Choosing Sides Sidelines The Church By: Andy Stanley Format: Paperback Number of Pages: 256 Vendor: Zondervan Publication Date: 2022 | Dimensions: 7.13 X 5.00 (inches) Weight: 9 ounces ISBN: 0310138922 ISBN-13: 9780310138921 Stock No: WW0138921 |
Is it possible to disagree politically and love unconditionally? The reaction of evangelicals to political and cultural shifts in recent years revealed what they value most. Lurking beneath our Bible-laced rhetoric, faith claims, books, and sermons is a relentless drive to WIN!
But the church is not here to win. By every human measure, our Savior lost. On purpose. With a purpose. And we are his body. We are not in it to win anything. We are in it for something else entirely. That something else is what this book is about.
You'll discover:
Jesus never asked his followers to agree on everything. But he did call his followers to obey a new command: to love others in the same way he has loved us. Instead of asserting our rights or fighting for power, we need to begin asking ourselves: what does love require of me?
