Imagine what our world might look like if Christians became known for
remarkable love, as well as life-giving truth.
The stakes are high and the need is great for Christians to represent
Jesus to a watching world. And today, we have more influence than ever
before--for better and for worse. We are among the first generations to
have access to a global megaphone through social media. But it's not
enough to speak truth louder to a noisy culture. To counter the
reputation Christians have earned, our love must be just as loud.
Ask evangelist Matt Brown, and he will tell you Christians today are
facing a crisis of influence. In our rush to speak truth to today's
tensions, cultural issues, and trending controversies, it becomes all
too easy to focus on proving our points rather than extending God's
grace. Conversely, when we seek only to love yet never proclaim a better
way, we short-circuit God's plan.
Truth Plus Love invites you to rediscover the biblical framework for
engaging culture as ambassadors of Christ. Through biblical insight,
cultural analysis, and practical principles, Matt Brown outlines how to
champion truth without compromise, how to love unconditionally, and
ultimately, how to step into this great adventure of representing God to
the world. It's hard, it's messy, and it's the unfinished project of a
lifetime, yet here we find our great adventure: representing God to a
watching world.
