ECPA 2010 Christian Book of the Year Award Winner!*What Does God Expect of Us?
Is our faith only about going to church, studying the Bible, and avoiding the most serious sins-or does God expect more?*Have we embraced the*whole*gospel or a gospel with a hole in it?
More than twenty years ago Rich Stearns came face-to-face with that question as he sat in a mud hut in Rakai, Uganda, listening to the heartbreaking story of an orphaned child. Stearns's journey to that moment took much more than a long flight to Africa. It took answering God's call on his life, a call that tore him out of his corner office at one of America's most prestigious corporations-to walk with the poorest of the poor in our world.
This anniversary edition of*The Hole in Our Gospel*features new content along with full-color graphics on poverty statistics, a guide for churches on short-term missions and international engagement, and an index of Scripture on poverty, justice, faith in action, and more.*
The Hole in Our Gospel*changed people's lives, and some of those personal accounts also appear in this anniversary edition. Stearns's compelling story demonstrates that the*whole*gospel was always meant to be a world-changing, social revolution, a revolution that begins with each one of us.
