New York Times bestselling author Mark Batterson brings a brand new book to market calling Christians to give their whole life to Jesus.
Readers will find New York Times bestselling author Mark Batterson's writing filled with his customary vivid, contemporary illustrations, as well as biblical characters like Shamgar, Elisha, Jonathan, and Judas.
Batterson's message throughout All In is simple: If Jesus is not Lord of all then Jesus is not Lord at all. It's all or nothing. It's now or never. Kneeling at the foot of the cross of Christ and surrendering to His Lordship is a radical act of dethroning yourself and enthroning Christ as King. It's also an act of disowning yourself. Nothing belongs to you. Not even you.
Batterson writes, "For many years, I thought I was following Jesus. I wasn't. I had invited Jesus to follow me. I call it inverted Christianity. And it's a subtle form of selfishness that masquerades as spirituality. That's when I sold out and bought in. When did we start believing that the gospel is an insurance plan It's a daring plan. Jesus did not die just to keep us safe. He died to make us dangerous."/p
Christians who want to take the next step in their faith walk need look no further.
