What every person wants more than anything else is to be fully known and fully loved. This is what it means to be an insider. And the grand story of Scripture is about how the insider God—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—has come to outsiders in order to bring us in. How does this happen? And what does this do to shape our understanding of who God is, who we are, and what the world is like? In Insider-Outsider, award-winning author Pierce Taylor Hibbs (Struck Down but Not Destroyed, The Book of Giving, The Great Lie) explores the theology of insiders and outsiders, unpacking the beauty of God's character and work throughout history, culminating in the coming of Jesus Christ, the great insider, and in the giving of the Holy Spirit.

But Hibbs doesn't stop there. He uses this insider-outsider dynamic to present a fresh approach to apologetics, helping everyday Christians talk about their faith in extraordinary ways. Guiding readers through the thickets of theology, philosophy, and culture, he shows what it looks like for insiders in Christ to approach outsiders with courage, kindness, and truth. With a foreword by Christopher Watkin (Biblical Critical Theory), and chock-full of poetry, prayers, and critical questions, Insider-Outsider promises to serve the next generation of Christians with the life-changing, world-shaping truth of the gospel: the good news of God coming to outsiders in order to make them insiders. If you've been looking Reformed theology and a down-to-earth guide to apologetics that doesn't compromise on richness, look no further.
