Two great books to recommend today: MERE DISCIPLESHIP by Lee Camp (a former Highland member and now a Bible professor at Lipscomb) and UNFINISHED RECONCILIATION, edited by Gary Holloway and John York. I read both of these in manuscript form a couple months ago, and the final products just arrived today.
Lee’s book is aptly subtitled “Radical Christianity in a Rebellious World.” And it is a radical vision of Christianity that he capably presents, walking readers through the life and the teachings of Jesus. Check out these chapter titles:
“Worship: Why Disciples Love Their Enemies”
“Baptism: Why Disciples Don’t Make Good Americans”
“Prayer: Why Disciples Trust God Rather Than Their Own Calculations”
“Communion: Why Disciples Share Their Wealth”
“Evangelism: How Disciples Make a Difference”
There are lots of strong chapters in UNFINISHED RECONCILIATION (including two by Lee Camp). But you’d better buckle your seatbelt before reading the prophetic words of Ken Greene!
