Produktbeschreibung

When it comes to God's grace and forgiveness, do you sometimes feel like church folks speak out of both sides of their mouths? Religion says: Earn your way, prove yourself, atone for your sins, feel guilty, be weary, hope that God will accept you, keep striving, do your best, behave properly, act happy, meet God halfway, try harder, produce good works, keep the rules, don't rock the boat, don't ask questions, promise to do better. Jesus says: It is finished! Rest in me and your life will be fruitful. In this provocative book, Pastor Jeremy White explains why God's grace and truth do not "balance" each other out. Instead, you will discover that grace is radically imbalanced in your favor! Learn to let go of that religious checklist of "do's and don'ts" in exchange for the unconditional grace of God offered to you in Christ. Whether you've hit a wall in your spiritual life, are disappointed in your performance as a believer, or have allowed churchy, religious ideas to snuff out the joy-giving power of the Jesus you originally fell in love with, it's time to relax! Discover The Gospel Uncut-with no edits, add-ons, or scraps left scattered on the cutting-room floor! "What if everything you've ever dreamed of in your relationship with God is already yours to enjoy? What if you just don't realize how good you've got it? That's the radical message in The Gospel Uncut by Jeremy White, a pastor who is not afraid to proclaim the gospel of grace, plainly and without compromise. Read this book to see you are clean and close to your God. Read this book to relax and enjoy your Jesus. He loves you so!" Andrew Farley, bestselling author of "The Naked Gospel" and host of "Andrew Farley LIVE" on Sirius XM "Everyone looks for that just-right book, the one that will quickly illuminate and invigorate, and which will resolve odd questions that have plagued for years. This is that book. I'm not kidding. The Gospel Uncut is truly a treasure that is both breathtaking and timely! Jeremy White skillfully leads the reader out of tangled wonderings about God and into the clear and easy rest and love that Jesus offers to all. If you're looking for treasure, get this book!" Ralph Harris, author of "God's Astounding Opinion of You" and President of Life Course Ministries.

Autorenporträt

Jeremy White is a tenured cynic who penned a hopeful book. He founded South Louisiana's premier satirical publication in 2004, eight years before relaunching the award-winning Red Shtick Magazine as its all-digital progeny, The Red Shtick. The comic-turned-writer created and produced Baton Rouge's first and only weekly stand-up open mic for years, during which Jeremy hosted and produced The Red Stick Comedy Block, a locally broadcast, weekly half-hour TV show featuring area comics performing before live audiences around town. The passionate Cajun can often be heard on various popular radio shows as either a guest or a guest host. A longtime football official and Mardi Gras krewe captain, Jeremy earned a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering at LSU, where he met his wife, Edie. They've been happily married since 1992 and live in Baton Rouge with their cat, Waffles.
