A More Christlike Way: A More Beautiful Faith

4.4/5 ( ratings)

Christianity’s infamy is that our way and our faith have not been very Christlike. A More Christlike Way is a book for our time, where so much of what is called Christianity has been hijacked to serve agendas that are decidedly un-Christlike.

In this sequel to A More Christlike God, Brad Jersak an award winning author, accomplished theologian, grounded in Scripture and Patristics, writes from decades of pastoral experience. A More Christlike Way is a book about Jesus Christ. Jersak lays out how Jesus Christ of Nazareth, in his fully human nature, forged the path for a new and true humanity. We’ll call it the Jesus Way.

The author critiques four common counterfeits to the Jesus Way:
1 Moralism: When Morality Becomes Heresy
2 Partisan Amoralism: When Politics Trump Morality
3 Retributive Factionalism: Are You on the Spectrum?
4 Nationalism & Civil Religion

He then describes seven facets of a more Christlike Way:
Facet 1 – Radical Self-giving
Facet 2 – Radical Hospitality
Facet 3 – Radical Unity
Facet 4 – Radical Recovery
Facet 5 – Radical Peacemaking/Forgiveness
Facet 6 – Radical Surrender
Facet 7 – Radical Compassion/Justice

Finally, Jersak closes with “A More Beautiful Vision: Abba’s ‘I have a dream speech’”

A More Christlike Way sets forth a vision for following Jesus that is in keeping with the kind of faith that first turned the world upside down two thousand years ago.
