About the Book
What if . . . Your Boss lets you know that a promotion and extra benefits at work will be based on how well you work as a unified team and not how well you know your materials (let's face it, some of the most obnoxious people we know are know-it-alls!). Would you prioritize working well as a unified team or knowing your materials better than anyone else? Obviously, you would build your team-unity skills and plan on gaining promotions and benefits as you rack up successes! In fact, Jesus followers have given Him the right to be our Boss and He has requested us to model our behavior after His. Even though He knew everything, Jesus was so winsome, engaging, and loving that He was constantly surrounded by massive crowds eager to learn more! This book explores what makes Team Jesus resistible (Jewish replacement theory, prejudice, women excluded from church leadership, Christian resistance of same-sex marriages) and compares our behavior against what Jesus demonstrated. Jesus' Model (as defined by Andy Stanley) shows us a way to be 'Biblical' and consistent. We are free to show love and grace to everyone we meet without exception. Jesus' Model is our Master's key to unlocking the door to unity within His body. We can be known for our love. We can restore trust in Team Jesus. We can work in unity with Jesus as our Boss like a hand-in-glove. If Christian inconsistencies bother you, this book addresses them. Beyond shining light on them, Jesus shows us what we can do about it and it's simpler than you think. If we make Jesus our Boss and follow His directions, we can be as irresistible as He is when we act as His hands, feet, and voice in this world. By rearranging our priorities, this generation has the opportunity to transform Team Jesus into an irresistible force known for being radically inclusive like Jesus and loving others as Jesus loves us. I invite you on a journey to find out how to become irresistible and help others become irresistible like Jesus, too! About the Author, Team Jesus: Robert Morris (Jonah) - Debunks the false teaching of Jewish replacement theory, and shows us how to open an internal door to let Jesus in and start to help us make decisions. Loren Cunningham - Provides evidence that 'Biblical' teachings that resist equal opportunities for women in leadership are false, misrepresent God, and are harmful to those espousing them. E.T. Sundby - Takes a sledgehammer to the bad foundation of misguided Christian ideas that the Bible condemns people experiencing same-sex attractions. Andy Stanley - Shows us Jesus' Model of how to love others, attend weddings, and give grace. Miles McPherson - Lays out the mechanics of prejudice and shows a simple way we can help others feel Jesus' love through our hands, feet, and voices. Paul Watson - Understands that Jesus is offended by our sin every single day, yet He loves us more than His right to be offended. . . .

Our God is on the move! There are only two teams according to Jesus, "This is war, and there is no neutral ground. If you're not on my side, you're the enemy; if you're not helping, you're making things worse." -Jesus in Luke 11:23 (MSG). We choose every single minute of every single day which team we want to win with our thoughts, actions, and habits.
