Christians face profound challenges today, including doubt, discouragement, fear, guilt, rejection, materialism, and spiritual apathy.

Why does the allegiance that radical terrorists give to their false cause exceed the allegiance that most Christians today give to Jesus Christ?

Why do we have pews, steeples, choirs, and seminaries?

Two thousand years ago, Jesus Christ met face to face with people just like you. Broken, imperfect, sometimes fearful, and without hope. The Day I Met Jesus is a beautifully crafted narrative that chronicles the remarkable encounters of five women in the Gospels who were desperate to find wholeness, security, and purpose. Like all of us, these women struggled with the regrets of their pasts, the stresses of their presents, and the worries of their tomorrows.

Every person follows a script for living, a life guide that directs our behavior and shapes our choices. As believers, we find the original script for living woven throughout the Bible. Yet while the Christian message is simple, it can become complicated by our environment, our culture, and our religious ideas and traditions. For this reason, we are all in constant need of revising the scripts by which we live. Author Frank Viola believes we need to revisit and revise what it means to live the Christian life.

“…afin d’être en tout le premier.” —Colossiens 1:18 Les chrétiens ont fabriqué un évangile avec tellement de choses, autres que le Christ. Les concepts religieux, les idées, les doctrines, les stratégies, les méthodes, les techniques, les formules, et plein d’autres choses ont complètement éclipsé la beauté, la gloire et la réalité du Seigneur Jésus lui-même.

Explorer les racines de nos pratiques d'église Vivons-nous vraiment l'église "conformément à la Bible" ? Pourquoi le pasteur prêche-t-il à chaque office? Pourquoi les offices semblent-ils si semblables semaine après semaine ? Pourquoi l'assemblée demeure-t-elle assise passivement? Vous n'en êtes pas si sûrs? Ce livre fait une suggestion inquiétante: la plupart des usages ponctuant la vie des chrétiens d'aujourd'hui chaque dimanche à l'église sont enracinés, non pas dans le Nouveau Testament, mais dans la culture et les rituels païens développés longtemps après la mort des...
