Written by Jim Daly, the compassionate leader of Focus on the Family,
ReFocus inspires and motivates Christians to transcend political
agendas and partisan battles and instead interact with others in a way
that will consistently reveal the heart of God to a desperately hurting
world.
Our culture has become painfully polarized, often hindering
relationships with neighbors, colleagues, and the very people who need
to discover the love of Jesus Christ. Remembering that we are foremost
citizens of heaven serving a loving Father, we who call ourselves
followers of Christ can once again be known by our love.
But how? In what context and through what means? How can we tear down
the walls that divide our culture, our neighborhoods and workplaces and
families, in this increasingly contentious world?
Drawing on a rich variety of true stories and sources both historical
and contemporary--from behind the scenes in today's halls of power, to
moving accounts from church history, to powerful breakthrough's in
Daly's own life and ministry--Daly challenges us to reclaim our
responsibility, and our privilege, as God's sons and daughters.
As followers of Jesus with his humility and compassion as our model,
ReFocus: Living a Life that Reflects God's Heart demonstrates how
Christians can show the world an inexplicable taste of grace with no
agenda other than to reveal the heart of God as the loving Abba father
he is.
