Turn your house upside down and READ "Radical" by David Platt. We attended secret church tonight at The Church at Brook Hills and studied what God's Word says about possessions and passions. It was a very intense fast study for 7 hours that will take some time to process. This is a MUST read!
about this book - from random house
IS JESUS WORTH THIS TO YOU?
It's easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for Him. They would abandon everything for the Gospel. They would take up their crosses daily....
But who do you know who lives like that? DO YOU?
In Radical, David Platt challenges you to consider with an open heart how we have manipulated the Gospel to fit our cultural preferences. He shows what Jesus actually said about being His disciple-- then invites you to believe and obey what you have heard. And he tell the dramatic story of what is happening as a "successful" suburban church decides to get serious about the gospel according to Jesus.
Finally, he urges you to join in The Radical Experiment a one-year journey in authentic discipleship that will transform how you live in a world that desperately needs the Good News Jesus came to bring.
