About Jesus Outside The Lines: A Way Forward For Those

Product Description Whether the issue of the day on Twitter, Facebook, or cable news is our sexuality, political divides, or the perceived conflict between faith and science ,  today's media pushes each one of us into a frustrating clash between two opposing sides. Polarizing, us-against-them discussions divide us and distract us from thinking clearly and communicating lovingly with others. Scott Sauls, like many of us, is weary of the bickering and is seeking a way of truth and beauty through the conflicts.  Jesus Outside the Lines  presents Jesus as this way. Scott shows us how the words and actions of Jesus reveal a response that does not perpetuate the destructive fray. Jesus offers us a way forward - away from harshness, caricatures and stereotypes. In  Jesus Outside the Lines , you will experience a fresh perspective of Jesus, who will not (and should not) fit into the sides. Review Scott seamlessly weaves together theology, cultural critique, Christian ethics, and character formation. The result is a picture of Christian living that should be attractive to believers and to many skeptics as well.Tim Keller   Scott has written one of the most needed books of our times, one that I fervently believe should be in the hands of every single Christian without exception. Ann Voskamp A compelling vision for how to follow the real Jesus in real life. Jesus Outside the Lines is a guide that helps followers of Jesus love God and the world around them.Darrin Patrick As people who have wrestled muchwith God's habit of redemptively "coloring outside the lines" in our own livesand experience, we are so grateful for the wisdom, care, and honesty with whichour friend and pastor Scott Sauls has approached this subject in this book.

Judging by this book,Scott Sauls is beginning to emerge as one of our best voices. Sammy Rhodes Scott Sauls is a refreshing voice. He tackles topics that have long created division with such heartfelt hope that I'm more encouraged than ever about the future of the church. Rebekah Lyons Choosing sides in cultural conflicts has left us feeling stereotyped and caricatured. With theological insight, cultural astuteness, and the compassionate tone of Jesus, Scott has painted a way for the church to have influence without coercion and put the brilliance of Jesus on display in a pluralistic world.
