Both-And

Living the Christ-Centered Life in an Either-Or World

About this book

It's an Either-Or world. We find ourselves caught between competing factions, secular or religious, conservative or liberal. We are pulled between extremes on one side or the other. But the Christian faith holds together seemingly contradictory ideas: Jesus is both human and divine; God is both three and one. There is a paradoxical power in the both-and. Rich Nathan and Insoo Kim show how Christians can live out the fullness of the gospel through the both-and. They affirm that we believe in both proclamation and demonstration of the gospel, justice and mercy, and unity and diversity as one body with many parts. The answer is not to choose one or the other, but to hold both together for a richer, more holistic experience of Christianity.Then we will live into the realities of the kingdom of God, both now and not yet, on earth as it is in heaven.Both-And Christians are both timeless and timely, hewing to the orthodoxy of traditional belief while always contextualizing our witness ina rapidly changing world. Discover how you can deepen your discipleship with the larger vision of the both-and.
