Senior pastor Brady Boyd draws parallels between the early church at
Corinth and today's culture to illustrate how Christians can stay true
to their beliefs and live a loving and faith-filled life--demonstrating
a new way to interact with the modern world.
Lead pastor of New Life Church Brady Boyd encourages us to look beyond
the archetypical pitfalls Christians historically have fallen victim to:
Instigators hold an "us-against-you" outlook towards anyone whose
beliefs differ from theirs; Isolators go into holy hiding and choose
to associate exclusively with those who think like them; and
Integrators slide so seamlessly into the surrounding culture that they
become ingrained in it.
Instead, in this "rousing" work, Boyd "lays out an approach for
Christian readers to live out their faith by using the teachings of
Paul" (Publishers Weekly). Through Paul's teachings, Boyd shows us how
we can not only learn to hear the Word, but also live it, reclaiming the
peace, the freedom, and the joy that we lost by imitating the modern
world.
Remarkable reminds us that by embracing the vision Paul held for
followers of God, we can begin leading truly remarkable lives by letting
love guide us every step of the way.
