Jesus had little patience with institutional religion that cared
for its own needs while neglecting the plight of ordinary people.
In one of his most famous parables, he sets up as a model of
Christian behavior a man who, unlike some religious folks, actually
gets down off his donkey and helps a person in dire need.
With energy and enthusiasm, Reggie McNeal calls believers to
dismount, get down and dirty, and live a life that makes a
difference. He shows readers how to recalibrate their spiritual
efforts to move from church-centric service to greater community
engagement in order to do their essential part in creating a world
worth living in. McNeal also shows readers that helping others
actually helps the one doing the service just as much as the one
being served. In fact, serving is the very best way to learn about
yourself and grow spiritually.
Anyone who longs to have the impact on the world that Jesus did
will love this provocative and inspirational message.
