Radical Together: Unleashing the People of God for the Purpose of God




Radical Together by David Platt is a 176 pg. treatise that champions its readers to follow the clear teachings of the Word of God to care for the poor and reach the lost. It is a clarion call for churches across the world to take back their faith from the American Dream.

The product description says, "Dr. Platt shares six foundational ideas that fuel radical obedience among Christians in the church. With compelling Bible teaching and inspiring stories from around the world, he will help you apply the revolutionary claims and commands of Christ to your community of faith in fresh, practical ways."

These six foundational ideas are:
+The worst enemy of Christians is good things in the church.
+The gospel that saves us from work saves us to work.
+The Word does the work.
+Building the right church depends on using all the wrong people.
+We are living -and longing -for the end of the world.
+We are selfless followers of a self-centered God.

Radical Together is an excellent road map that leads its readers back to the understanding the Word of God and doing what Jesus really called us to do.
