Crazy Love
It always feels good when you can finish a bible study and feel like you can take something away from it. Recently there was a bible study I had been attending in the a.m. and it was based off the book Crazy Love by Francis Chan.
We had some really deep discussions every week and to top it off we either had Bojangles or Chick-Fil-A for breakfast. It is one of the better bible studies I have been to. Francis Chan and his team really articulated the idea of getting closer to God in such a way that anyone on any level could understand.
If you ever question the "Christian Life" then this book is for you. If you ever feel convicted when you pass that homeless guy that is asking you for some change, (and yes I know how that system works but there are ways around it) I recommend this book. If you just want a book to read over the summer then I recommend this book. Kind of get the theme here. If you don't have the money to get it borrow one. If you live in my area I can make that happen for you.
I leave you with a question Chris Tomlin poses in the foreword.
"...in Acts 11, at the end of verse 26, it says, 'The disciples were CALLED Christians first at Antioch.' What I find interesting is the simple thought that the Christians didn't name themselves. But rather, they were called(or named) 'Christians' by those watching their lives. I wonder if it would be the same today. Could someone look at your life or look at my life and name me a Christian? A humbling question for sure."
