A Jesus-Shaped Life

How Diving Deeper into Theology Can Transform Us and Our World with the Radical Kindness of God

De: Lisa Harper, Scot McKnight - foreword

Narrado por: Mike Chamberlain, Lisa Harper

When many of us hear the word theology, we conjure up visions of stuffy old guys in dark clothing, scratching a pen across paper (or maybe a quill across parchment!) and assume that it's not for us. But at its most basic, theology is just words (logos) about God (theos). Conversations, if you will, about the most important part of our lives—our good, loving, and grace-filled God.

With her signature style and humor, bestselling Bible teacher Lisa Harper invites you into this life-changing conversation. She makes theology fun, practical, and applicable, explaining how academic-sounding concepts—such as imago Dei, atonement, the Trinity, the transcendence and immanence of Christ, and much more—are actually daily realities that make an enormous difference in how we live our lives, how we treat other people, and how we understand our own relationship to our Creator.

If you want to grow closer to God and take a more active role in your community of faith, it's time to take your understanding of God to the next level with sound theology rooted in Scripture. Let Lisa be your (very entertaining) guide!

Excellent Listen

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was engaging and educational at the same time which can be a feat in itself. I love the story telling way in which Lisa narrates the book.

A veritable treasure

Dr. Harper blends history with current life - and ties it in to her own - all in a successful endeavor communicating the undeniable, tangible value of living a Jesus shaped life.

Breath of Fresh Air

So glad I didn't believe the negative reviews. This is definitely not a dusty, confusing theology book. She does a fantastic job of connecting the dots between the Old and New Testaments, giving us a deeper understanding of our faith. And she's funny. Highly recommend.

The necessity of divine grace

The quote from Lisa that stuck with me the most was, “Being honest about my shortcomings is a practical way to amplify the divine grace I will need until I’m in heaven”.

The entire book was well-written and was done so in typical Lisa fashion. Wonderful personal stories with beautiful biblical connections.

Enlightening

I learned new things and it clarified some confusing concepts. It helped me see God in more loving ways and made me feel a little less anxious about life.
