If you've followed this much neglected blog since the beginning, you'll know that I've felt that we've missed something. Having grown up in a very much legalistic, religious, rule-based church has left me wondering, seeking, and frustrated. Wondering where we went wrong, seeking more of a relationship with Him, and frustrated at the legalistic judgment that took so long to remove from my head.
If you've ever wondered if we're missing something, then this book is for you.
From the preface:
This book is written or those who want more Jesus. It is for those who are bored with what American Christianity offers. It is for those who don't want to plateau, those who would rather die before their convictions do.
I hope reading this book will convince you of something: that by surrendering yourself totally to God's purposes, He will bring you the most pleasure in this life and in the next. I hope it affirms your desire for "more God" -- even if you are surrounded by people who feel they have "enough God." I hope in inspires confidence if you have questioned and doubted the commitment of American church. I want to affirm your questioning, even while assuring you there is hope.
Are you satisfied with thinking you're doing ok by avoiding drinking, sex, drugs, smoking, and pornography or do you desire more of Him? Are you desperately seeking?
