The gospel of Jesus--it's the good news with the power to shape a nation. And yet, for many, the church seems to have lost its transformative edge. But why? Looking past the symptoms to the root cause, junior doctor Freddie Pimm suggests a diagnosis: we have made the gospel selfish. Thankfully, however, Jesus freely prescribes the treatment . . . Easy to relate to and full of biblical truth, The Selfish Gospel reminds us of the gospel's greatest paradox: in order to save our lives, we must first lose them. Going against the grain of our "it's all about me" society, this refreshing book explains how it is only when we let the gospel cost us and change us that we see the power of transformation--within ourselves, throughout the church, and across our generation.
