Rezensionen

This book has a simple message for believers but it is so full of depth and truth. Greear lays out some serious truths about the Gospel and how it should be at the forefront of every single thing we do and say.

Greear proceeded to step on my toes as he addressed many aspects of the Christian life and how we should approach the world. He did not mince words on the church, society, politics, sexuality, morality, personal evangelism and many more relevant topics for the time in which we live.

He spent time talking about how we should NOT look like the world around us. We should live a different life from the one the world exemplifies. Our mission is not self love, wealth, fame, popularity or any other selfish endeavor. The life we live should be one of sacrifice and servitude to our Lord and Savior and to those in our sphere of influence.

We should see the world from God’s perspective and act as He would act toward those around us. That does not mean we ignore sin but it does mean we respond differently… lovingly, willing to step in to guide and disciple those who are seeking God. He used some great illustrations of this from his own experiences on the mission field, church staff, from his role as pastor and as the President of the SBC. This book was loaded with scripture and truths for everyday living. He had so many great things to say but, again, I must warn you that some of it will not be comfortable.

If you really want to make a difference in the world I encourage you to start with this book (well, first read God’s word). Know the word of God, build that relationship with God and then impact the world right where you are. Living for Christ will change your life and hopefully it will change everyone in your path, too!

I've given this book to at least two people. In the American South, everyone has a story like this author's, and many have the same doubts. J.D. speaks to the questions so many have, and does so in a simple yet compelling manner. I highly recommend for family members and friends who are unsure about their salvation.

This book shows you why 'the Spirit inside you is better than Jesus beside you' It was a good look at the Holy Spirit; getting to know Him and realize how much He can and will do in our life if we only take advantage of Him. God's Spirit stands ready "to guide you empower you, and use you". I took many good quotes from this book and wrote them in my journal to look back upon and be reminded of.
