A Jesus-Shaped Life

How Diving Deeper into Theology Can Transform Us and Our World with the Radical Kindness of God

About this book

An unstuffy, unintimidating invitation to greater intimacy with God

· from the creator of the top-ranked Back Porch Theology podcast
· makes theology simple, accessible, and applicable to your daily life
· transform your relationship with God

The most basic definition of theology is words (logos) about God (theos). Conversations, if you will, about the most important thing in life--developing a real, ongoing, vibrant relationship with God Himself.

With her signature style and wit, bestselling author and Bible teacher Lisa Harper invites you into this life-giving conversation. She makes theology engaging, practical, and applicable by explaining how academic-sounding concepts--such as imago Dei, atonement, the Trinity, the transcendence and immanence of Christ, and much more--are not rigid theoretical propositions but transformative realities that we get to live out with God and with other people.

If you want more joy and peace with God and you feel called to make more of a Jesus-shaped dent in the world around you, then it's time to dive deeper into biblically sound theology. With Lisa as your guide, this is guaranteed to be quite the adventure!
