Print: $18.09 Download: $3.00 Christianity is at a crossroads today. In our world, radical fundamentalism has hijacked many religions and turned them into political ideologies. Meanwhile, other churches are turning Christianity into a self-focused form of emotionalism. In that focus, worship becomes akin to a Hollywood production masking a cult of consumerism.
This book seeks to cut through those deceptions with the Jesus that invites us into personal relationship AND communal restoration. It cuts through the Jesus our culture prefers and looks at the Jesus our culture rejects.
The purpose of this book is to provide readers with enough information to have “Significant Conversations” about Christianity. Not a faith that makes us feel comfortable, but a faith that challenges us to the soul. The purpose of this book is no less than the to turn comfortable members into relevant disciples who purposely live out the Great Commission of Jesus Christ in the real world.

Print: $8.56 Download: $2.00 Jesus only takes a paragraph to define "church" to his followers. He defines church as a place of radical hospitality and goes on to define the role of each member of the church. In his definition, there are no commentators or spectators.

UPDATED BIO
Jerry Goebel is a community organizer who started ONEFamily Outreach in response to gang violence and youth alienation in a rural community in Southeastern Washington. Since that time, Jerry has worked with communities around the globe to break the systemic hold of poverty by enhancing the strengths of the poor.

Jerry’s work includes working with incarcerated youth and adults and teaching churches to be a model of communal restoration. As well as having developed ongoing mentoring outreaches in his own community, Jerry travels extensively to work with church leaders, community governments, and educators.
