Publisher's Synopsis
What is life, actually? The Church has to adjust its perspective from what has largely become (at least, in the global West) a sort of Christian life which prefers comfort and safety; a perspective which isn't really sure what life after death looks like except for there may be golden pavement, cloud flooring, harps, and some sort of disembodied boring bliss which awaits us. It is time we strap on the boldness of our faith ancestors and family in persecuted contexts who refuse to shrink back from death. We need the type of Christianity which sees life in such a profoundly different way that it changes the way we talk about it, it changes the way we mourn the passing of those in the family of God, and it changes the way we use the life we're given for the glory of God.
