Not In It To Win It by Andy Stanley
Is it truly possible to hold differing political views while embracing unconditional love? The response of evangelicals to recent political and cultural changes has illuminated their core values. Beneath the surface of our Bible-infused rhetoric, faith declarations, literature, and sermons lies a relentless desire to WIN!
However, the church is not meant to pursue victory. By all worldly standards, our Savior willingly accepted defeat—intentionally and purposefully. As His body, our mission is not about winning; it’s about something much deeper. This book explores that deeper purpose.
In these pages, you'll discover:
- How to advocate for your beliefs with humility and understanding, rather than out of fear of losing something important.
- A faith-based perspective on politics that encourages curiosity, intentional listening, and unconditional love.
- Fresh insights into how the life and teachings of Jesus relate to contemporary issues, challenging what we’ve been traditionally taught.
Jesus never required his followers to agree on every point, but He did command us to love others as He has loved us. Rather than clamoring for our rights or vying for power, we should reflect on this critical question: What does love require of me?
