Story
We live in a time when our culture is becoming increasingly shallow, coarse, and empty. Radical shifts in the areas of sexuality, ethics, technology, secular ideologies, and religion have caused the once-familiar landscape of a generation ago to be virtually unrecognizable. Yet rather than shine as a beacon of light, the church often is silent or accommodating. This isn’t a new phenomenon. During World War II, pastor and theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer was deeply troubled by the compromise in the German church.

Story
What are we supposed to think about the coronavirus crisis? Some people think they know: ‘This is a sign of the End,’ they say. ‘It’s all predicted in the book of Revelation.’ Others disagree but are equally clear: ‘This is a call to repent. God is judging the world and through this disease he’s telling us to change.’ Some join in the chorus of blame and condemnation: ‘It’s the fault of the Chinese, the government, the World Health Organisation...’ Tom Wright examines these reactions to the virus and finds them wanting.

Story
Christianity has tended to focus on right beliefs and right choices as the keys for personal growth. But biblical evidence and modern brain science show that our character is shaped more by whom we love than what we believe. Through conversations he had with Dallas Willard at the Heart and Soul Conference shortly before Dallas' death, Jim Wilder shows how we can train our brains to relate to God based on joyful, mutual attachment - which leads to emotional and spiritual maturity as our identity and character are formed by our relationship with God.

Story
During our chaotic times, discover five forgotten values that can spark internal growth and help us reconcile our Christian faith with the complexities of race, sexuality, and social justice. Most believers live in the state of "being a Christian" without ever being deeply formed by Christ. Our pace is too frenetic to be in union with God, and we don't know how to quiet our hearts and minds to be present. Our emotions are unhealthy and compartmentalized.

Publisher's Summary
Daily devotions for people who hate daily devotions.
Let’s face it. A lot of Christian resources can feel cheesy, out-of-touch, and a little boring. But when Skye Jethani started doodling and writing up some of his thoughts about God, his Twitter and email list blew up.
What If Jesus Was Serious? is a compilation of all-new reflections from Skye. He takes a look at some of Jesus’ most demanding teachings in the Sermon on the Mount and pushes us to ask whether we’re really hearing what Christ is saying.
The audiobook is memorable and enjoyable to listen to, and Skye’s incisive reflections make it worthwhile for any Christian. If you’ve traditionally been dissatisfied with Christian devotional resources but love to learn about Jesus and think deeply, this book was written for you.

Living a Sermon on the Mount Life
There have been several interpretations of the Sermon on the Mount over the years. Some say it is a figurative lesson by Jesus because the teachings in it are way too hard for any man to actually live. Some say it is hyperbole as who can be perfect like God? Many of the teachings of Jesus have been explained away by well-meaning pastors and teachers to try to make it more attainable. Skye Jethani takes these questions and asks, "What if Jesus was serious?" What if he really meant us to live in accordance with this sermon? What if we are supposed to turn the other cheek, cast out anything that causes us to stumble, and not worry about our needs?
This is a series of short lessons on the Sermon on the Mount with the premise that Jesus was indeed serious when He said what He said. This would make a really good daily devotional as each lesson has a compelling idea that would propel you through the day thinking on the point made and drawing you closer in your relationship with God. At the end of each lesson are additional verses to study and backup what was said in this lesson.
It's funny to have an audiobook of a visual guide. The pictures are missing. It kinda would have been nice if there was an accompanying pdf with the doodles and the linked chapters in the audio book. Other than that, I have no critiques for this amazing book.

Teaching the Way
This was a great compliment to the book. After I read the book and was hoping for the audio format. Skye carries forward the teachings of Jesus the Christ and stays true to what Christians call the “Great Commission”- teaching what the LORD commands. I recommend all of Skye’s books.
