The Hole in Our Gospel Special Edition: What Does God Expect of Us? The Answer That Changed My Life and Might Just Change the World
<p><strong><strong>ECPA 2010 Christian Book of the Year Award Winner! </strong>What Does God Expect of Us?</strong></p><p>Is our faith only about going to church, studying the Bible, and avoiding the most serious sins—or does God expect more? Have we embraced the <em>whole</em> gospel or a gospel with a hole in it?</p><p>More than twenty years ago Rich Stearns came face-to-face with that question as he sat in a mud hut in Rakai, Uganda, listening to the heartbreaking story of an orphaned child. Stearns’s journey there took much more than a long flight to Africa. It took answering God’s call on his life, a call that tore him out of his corner office at one of America’s most prestigious corporations—to walk with the poorest of the poor in our world.</p><p>This anniversary edition of <em>The Hole in Our Gospel</em> features new content along with full-color graphics on poverty statistics, a guide for churches on short-term missions and international engagement, and an index of Scripture on poverty, justice, faith in action, and more. <em>The Hole in Our Gospel</em> changed people’s lives, and some of those personal accounts also appear in this anniversary edition. Stearns’s compelling story demonstrates that the <em>whole</em> gospel was always meant to be a world-changing, social revolution, a revolution that begins with each one of us.</p><p><em>The Hole in Our Gospel</em> is also available in Spanish, <em>Vacío en nuestro evangelio.</em></p><p> </p>
