Why God Calls Us to Dangerous Places
Autor Kate McCorden Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 aug 2015
""Perhaps that s the greatest reason why He calls us to dangerous places: so that we will know His astonishing, sacrificial, life-restoring love. "
"Why God Calls Us to Dangerous Places "is about what is lost and what is gained when we follow God at any cost.
Soon after 9/11, Kate McCord left the corporate world and followed God to Afghanistan sometimes into the reach of death. Alive but not unscathed, she has suffered the loss of many things: comfort, safety, even dear friends and fellow sojourners.
But Kate realizes that those who go are not the only ones who suffer. Those who love those who go also suffer. This book is for them, too.
Weaving together Scripture, her story, and stories of both those who go and those who send, Kate considers why God calls us to dangerous places and what it means for all involved.
It means dependence. It means loss. It means a firmer hold on hope. It can mean death, trauma, and heavy sorrow. But it can also mean joy unimaginable. Through suffering, we come closer to the heart of God.
Written with the weight of glory in the shadow of loss, "Why God Calls Us to Dangerous Places "will inspire Christians to count the cost and pay it."

"Perhaps that s the greatest reason why He calls us to dangerous places: so that we will know His astonishing, sacrificial, life-restoring love."
Weaving together Scripture, her story, and the testimonies of others, Kate McCord explores what is lost and what is gained when we follow God at any cost. She writes for those who go andthose who love them, since love shares in suffering.Written with the weight of glory in the shadow of loss, "Why God Calls Us to Dangerous Places"will inspire Christians to count the cost and pay it and so come closer to the heart of God.
Kate McCord s talk is born of a faithful walk. Shemakes a compelling case for followers of Christ entering dangerous places with abandon. She offers comfort for those who send and courage for those who go. Her understanding is no dry and dusty theological system divorced from life. This book will disturb, enlighten, and inspire you to follow Christ wherever He leads.
