Revangelical by Lance Ford
Lance Ford, in Revangelical,
calls Christians to be re-evangelized.
To get back to how Jesus called us to live the Good News. He has pointed out that “Evangelical
Christians” have not been the Good News the World should be seeing. When people look at Evangelicals, are they
seeing Jesus? This book will show you,
in his opinion, how that should come to pass.
My toes were stepped on, that’s
for sure; maybe not so much in a good, critical learning way, but sometimes in
an offended way. Ford, you can tell,
doesn’t like conservative radio show hosts, TV hosts or I believe conservatives
in general. Most of the conservatives
that he talks about don’t publicly profess Christianity. I was disappointed in this aspect of the
book. I agree with him that we, as
Christians, should be taking care of the poor and those looked down upon, like
the homeless. He wrote often of people
that he knew that had started communities or moved into communities to help the
underprivileged. These “revangelicals”
are living the gospel of Jesus.
His politics and mine may be
different but when it all boils down we agree, we should have a heart like
Jesus.
Should you become a Revangelical? Absolutely!
