Getting a Christian worldview is all the rage these days. But how about a Christian worldlife? Got one of those?

Leonard Sweet wants to show you the ins and outs of livin' and old-fashined faith in these newfangled times. In his engaging, wonderful, though-bytes style, Sweet invites you to...Mezuzah your universe, do dirt and do dishes, cycle to church, give history a shove, cheer rivals from the bench, and dance the salsa.

“Leadership” has become a runaway obsession for those who are called to equip the body of Christ for service in the Kingdom of God. The concept of “followership” is all but lost in the wake of this leadership fetish, a near hypnotic obsession. Jesus’ clear call, and the pattern of New Testament leadership, are actually found in a pattern of followership. We’ve been told otherwise but when it comes to a movement in our churches, our families, or the workplace, everything rises or falls on followership. Sweet proposes an intentional shift from leadership cults to followership cultures.

Do you hear it coming? The SoulTsunami, a mind-bending conglomeration of techno-culture and religious pluralism, is here to sweep away the old church. Leonard Sweet says there are only 3 ways for Christians to respond: deny it and drown; fight it and lose; or recognize it and adapt to its opportunities. Sweet explains how you can chart a new course through the uncertain religious waters of the next millennium.
