Our clture is changing almost daily in our world. This creates a lot of confusion as to where the believer and the church fit into this changing culture. How do we maintain our Christian identity in such a world that requires us to compromise our most cherished beliefs? This book offers an old solution that has stood the test of time, but has eluded many present-day believers. The original message of Jesus is no longer considered relevant in our culture by many today. This book challenges that idea by making Jesus' message about the kingdom of heaven not only relevant, but also necessary. It is time that we listen again to the underlying message of the greatest prophet and teacher who has ever lived and not only make his teaching relevant, but the teacher as well. ""It is wonderful to see the fabulous way that Robert Schut has unfolded and applied the wonderful principle of God's kingdom to our lives today. It is my privilege to have had him as my student, and to have known him for years as a faithful teacher. Drawing richly from a great study in the Word, Schut is able to make it applicable to our lives and help us grow in our deepest way possible in our walk with God. I appreciate his rich insights and his inductive questions. They give direction to introspection and then help to bring it out to others so they may truly experience what God is doing May God's kingdom come and his will be done."" --Ronald W.
