Description
Our culture is obsessed with safety and self. We are constantly assessing risks, prioritizing tasks, and categorizing people. We seek out security, efficiency, and comfort and avoid uncertainty, wasted time, and distress. We crave the known, the quantifiable, the safe. We resent people who interrupt us, challenge us, or need something from us. Ironically, the result of this mindset is always conflict. And in the midst of keeping everything on track, we miss God's mind-transforming, life-altering, world-changing invitations to trust him fully, connect with others, and experience the freedom he made us for. Through nail-biting true stories of hearing, resisting, and ultimately giving in to God's counterintuitive leadings in his life, former police officer and counterterrorism specialist Jamie Winship keeps you on the edge of your seat. He shows you how to see the world through God's lens, stop resisting God's promptings, embrace the unexpected, and live from a place of abundant, self-emptying love--even for your enemies. The result? Less stress, conflict, and separation, and more love, peace, and connection. And who doesn't want that?
