Book Reviews of Kingdom Come: How Jesus Wants to Change the World
Book Review: Challenges simplistic evangelicalism
Summary: 5 Stars
Being an evangelical myself, I'm grateful for Allen Wakabayashi's insight and challenge to go beyond a short-sighted, formulaic approach of sharing the faith. Moreover, Allen calls us to consider a broader, more comprehensive view of God's redemptive plan for the earth that is more faithful to Biblical texts. This is a very accessible book, but very potent in pushing the edges of what we evangelicals all too often settle for...a rather simplistic, manageable approach to faith, Scripture, God, and being kingdom agents in the world today.
Summary of Kingdom Come: How Jesus Wants to Change the World
God is up to something! And his plans are far greater than you might imagine. Christianity is not merely about isolated individuals going to heaven. It's about God transforming the entire world and making things right. Sicknesses will be healed, sins will be forgiven, injustice will be eradicated, and all creation will be redeemed. But this is not merely a distant future. It's happening now through what Jesus came to establish--the kingdom of God. Allen Wakabayashi reawakens you to the world-changing reality of the kingdom of God. With clear, biblical insight, he unpacks what Jesus proclaimed about the good news of the kingdom and spells out the implications for you today. Focusing on the kingdom of God will revolutionize how you live out your faith, how you think about your world and how you explain the good news about Jesus. Ultimately, understanding yourself as a citizen of the kingdom will empower you to be one of God's change agents in the world. God is at work to restore everything to be the way he intended it to be, and you can be a part of what he is doing! Get a glimpse of the kingdom coming, and experience his will being done--on earth as it is in heaven.Christian Living Books
