From the author of the acclaimed Simply Christian and Surprised by
Hope comes a book that addresses the question that has plagued humans
for centuries--what is our purpose? As Christians, what are we to do
with that ambiguous time between baptism and the funeral? It's easy to
become preoccupied with who gets into heaven; the real challenge is how
we are going to live in the here and now.
Wright dispels the common misconception that Christian living is nothing
more than a checklist of dos and don'ts. Nor is it a prescription to
"follow your heart" wherever it may lead. Instead, After You Believe
reveals the Bible's call for a revolution--a transformation of character
that takes us beyond our earthly pursuit of money, sex, and power into a
virtuous state of living that allows us to reflect God and live more
worshipful, fulfilling lives.
We are all spiritual seekers, intuitively knowing there is more to life
than we suspect. This is a book for anyone who is hoping there is
something more while we're here on Earth. There is. We are being called
to join the revolution, and Wright insightfully encourages readers to
find new purpose and clarity by taking us on an eye-opening journey
through key biblical passages that promise to radically alter the work
of the church and the direction of our lives.
