If Grace Is So Amazing, Why Don't We Like It?

"Donald McCullough understands that God's generosity gets up our nose and that, if we are honest, we find the teachings of Jesus offensive. It's an old spiritual maxim that the most privileged access to grace is through our greatest weakness. Who needs it? The author looks the issue in the eye with clarity and humor, showing us that our freedom and joy depend on a truth-telling that exposes not only our weakness and fragility but also the breathtaking grace of God, which rescues us from despair and makes us radiant with God's delight." -Alan Jones, dean, Grace Cathedral, San Francisco, and author, Reimagining Christianity Grace Will Turn Your World Upside Down-If You Let It "Donald McCullough's wonderful book offers a fresh perspective on grace as God's wild pursuit of our lives. This is not a book to comfort you. It's a book to help you become fully alive." -M. Craig Barnes, Robert Meneilly Professor of Pastoral Ministry, Pittsburgh Theological Seminary "I have always thought that most of our adult Christian life is spent relearning who God is. It's like we are looking in one direction and Don's words call loudly to us, 'No, over here!' And as we snap our head to look, we see a God who makes our jaw drop, our eyes well, and floods us with joy." -Nancy Ortberg, church consultant and former teaching pastor, Willow Creek Community ChurchMcCullough, Donald is the author of 'If Grace Is So Amazing, Why Don't We Like It?', published 2005 under ISBN 9780787974374 and ISBN 0787974374.
