The Hole in Our Gospel

Meer over het boek

What does God expect of us? Is faith merely attending church and avoiding serious sins, or is there more? Rich Stearns faced this question ten years ago in Uganda, where he heard the heartbreaking story of an orphaned child. His journey involved answering God's call, leading him away from a prestigious corporate career to serve the poorest. This compelling true story illustrates how a corporate CEO discovered the transformative power of the full gospel of Jesus Christ. Stearns shows that the gospel is meant to initiate a world-changing social revolution that starts with us. ECPA 2010 Christian Book of the Year Award Winner! Readers are urged to respond to the call for justice, as many American Christians have left this cause to "others." Stearns inspires exhilarating obedience to God's command to reflect love both locally and globally. His leadership at World Vision exemplifies the impact one can have in inspiring others. The book clarifies what God expects from each of us, reminding readers of personal responsibilities and the true fulfillment found in serving others. Stearns challenges Christians to embrace the whole Gospel by caring for the most vulnerable. After engaging with his moving stories and scriptural applications, readers will be compelled to ask themselves: What should I do?
