Thought-provoking and response-evoking, Engaged in Love and War takes readers on a journey into the dangerous, endearing, and sacrificial responsibility of every believer. Jesus invites you to engage with him in both love and war-a relationship meant to change the world and endure forever.
Over five billion people live without Jesus and need urgent rescue. The time is short; the message is alive; the laborers are few. Now is the time for all believers to re-awaken their commitment to Jesus and join him with courage in his global purpose. Engaged in Love and War will equip you to live with expanded understanding, passionate urgency, and strategic action. Engagement has never been so rewarding, or so challenging.
