I read with a highlighter, so my one complaint about this book: It seems to be printed on cheaper paper. I had to be extremely careful to press lightly with my pen or the ink would go straight through the page. But that's on the publisher's end. Mark Batterson has written another fantastic and motivating book. After reading "Wild Goose Chase" and "In a Pit With a Lion on a Snowy Day," I was excited to read this new book - and it didn't disappoint.
This book is a call to get back to the core of discipleship - the Great Commandment. Batterson puts it very well when he says that "Christians are more known for what we're against than what we're for."
The Great Commandment says nothing about "thou shalt not." It simply says to love God with all our heart, mind, soul and strength. If Christians really lived their lives by this Great Commandment, we would once again be making a difference in the world. Christianity would be a force for good, rather than an excuse for war and violence.
Read this book and live what it says.
