Over the last three years, I have gotten a free book from Mark Batterson. I am getting to the place that I hate when those packages arrive, because those "free" books end up costing me a lot of money. Mark writes in a way that resonates with me so clearly and compellingly, that I have to pass on his message to friends.
And all kidding aside, it's a price worth paying!
Mark's latest release Primal is another message that I can't wait to share with my friends! The core of this book is that a life rooted in the Great Commandment is the ONLY Christian life worth living. Within the pages of Primal, you will find yourself deeply challenged to embrace the compassion, wonder, curiosity, and energy that resonates from life of a radically devoted follower of Christ.
If you are content to be a "Sunday morning Christian," I can assure you that Primal is NOT the book for you, but if you have a desire to truly connect with God and be His change agent in this desperate world, I would challenge you to make this the first book you read in 2010.
This book was provided for review by WaterBrook Multnomah.
I agree with your assessment of this book. "Don't read it if you're happy with being a Sunday morning Christian." I too got one of the "free" copies and now I'm spiritually agitated (in a good way)!
