Unbinding Christianity
Author: Jan G. Linn
Publisher: Universal-Publishers
ISBN: 1627342923
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 146
Book Description
Unbinding Christianity is a book that will be good news for some readers while stretching others in uncomfortable ways. It begins with the premise that traditional Christian teaching is focused on right beliefs while the life and teachings of Jesus was all about right living. The book represents a fresh voice for Christians who struggle to accept traditional beliefs by assuring them that Jesus himself said much more about right values than he did right beliefs. The goal of this book is to unbind Christianity from the wrappings of creeds, doctrines, dogma, and beliefs in order to make room for an understanding of what it means to be Christian defined by values that invites unity among Christians without the need for conformity of beliefs. One of the important by-products of a values-based Christianity is that it paves the way for Christians with different beliefs to find common ground with one another while also freeing them to build bridges of understanding with non-Christian. WORDS OF PRAISE If you have found it impossible to continue believing in some of the doctrines the church has taught to be essential and don't know if you can continue being a Christian, Jan Linn offers some much needed guidance. --Craig Watts Unbinding Christianity is a thought-provoking argument for expansion of Christianity's often employed litmus tests of inclusion and rejection. --Joshua Santana This book is a wake-up call to all of us who choose to follow Jesus, a challenge for us to rethink what it truly means to be Christian. --Heather Cargill

Languages : en
Pages : 166
Book Description
All people are travelers through life. Although we may take different approaches on our journey, we are all eventually headed for a destination. If you’re not thinking about the endpoint of your travels, now is the time to start. In Yes! Jesus Is the Only Way to Heaven, author Renee E. Woods shares the testimony of the life of a traveler whose journey would have ended in hell, from which there would be no escape. Thank God, that trip has been forever canceled; she has been rerouted and one day will enter into heaven, a destination that comes with everlasting benefits. Woods has a vital message to share: God gave humanity free choice to accept or reject His perfect will for salvation through the propitiation of Jesus Christ, the only begotten son of the Father. And the only infallible way to be saved from hell and enter heaven is to accept Jesus. Full of thought-provoking testimonies and scriptures, this study presents an inspirational exploration of faith and an invitation to all to embrace what God has to offer.

Subversive Jesus
Author: Craig Warren Greenfield
Publisher: Zondervan
ISBN: 031034624X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
When Jesus left the most exclusive gated community in the universe to come live with the people he loved and gave his life for, he turned everything we know and believe about life on its head. Jesus said that he came to bring good news to the poor, but most Western Christians remain disconnected and isolated from the poor and their contexts of injustice. Even our churches echo society’s pressure to isolate ourselves from the margins (e.g. by moving to a better suburb) and instead teach us how to be “nice people” who worship a “nice Jesus” and don’t disrupt the status quo. Convinced that Jesus places love for the poor and the pursuit of justice central, Craig Greenfield has sought to follow in Christ’s footsteps by living among people at the edges of society for the last fourteen years. His quest to follow this Subversive Jesus has taken Craig and his young family from the slums of Asia to inner city Canada and back again. This is the story of how Jesus led them to the margins: initiating the Pirates of Justice flash mobs, sharing their home with detoxing crackheads, welcoming homeless panhandlers and prostitutes to the dinner table, and ultimately sparking a movement to reach the world’s most vulnerable children. This book is a strong and potentially controversial critique of the status quo too often found in our churches, but it offers an inspirational and hopeful vision of another way. While readers may not relocate to a slum, they will certainly come to view their lives and ministry through a fresh lens—reconsidering how they are uniquely called by Jesus to subversively love the poor and break down systems of injustice in their sphere of influence.
