Crazy Love by Francis Chan

Does something deep inside your heart long to break free from the status quo? Are you hungry for an authentic faith that addresses the problems of our world with tangible, even radicle, solutions? God is calling you to a passionate love relationship with Himself. Because the answer to religious complacency isn't working harder at a list of do's and don'ts -- it's falling in love with God. And once you encounter His love, as Francis Chan describes it, you will never be the same.

Because when you're wildly in love with someone, it changes everything!

Eats with Sinners by Arron Chambers

"This man welcomes sinners and eats with them." Luke 15:2

In Jesus' day, eating with someone was a way to acknowledge that person as an equal. Religious leaders considered it unthinkable for a Jewish teacher to eat with people who were common, even unclean. But Jesus cared more about saving souls than saving face.

So who are you eating with? Eats with Sinners introduces a biblical model for evangelism--building relationships like Jesus did, one meal (or cup of coffee) at a time.

The Barbarian Way: Unleash the Untamed Faith Within by Erwin McManus

Barbaric Christians see Jesus differently than civilized Christians. They see disciples differently, and see Christ's mission differently. The Barbarian Way is a call to escape "civilized" christianity and become original, powerful, untamed, Christians - just as Christ intended.

40 Days of Love: We Were Made for Relationships by Rick Warren

God tells us that our dominant life value is to be loved. Jesus once said that of all the commands in the Bible, two are most important: Love God with all your heart and love your neighbor as yourself. Learning to love God and others is to be our highest goal, our greatest aim, our first priority, our deepest aspiration, our strongest ambition, our constant focus, our passionate intention and our dominant life value. The more we learn how to love authentically, the more we become like Jesus.
