The American church is facing a discipleship crisis.
Instead of following the values of Jesus, many Christians are chasing after what our culture prizes: power, money, and political influence.
In Your Jesus Is Too American, Baptist pastor Steve Bezner invites Christians to rediscover what Jesus treasured and incorporate those kingdom values into the church's witness. With a pastoral voice, he shares the lessons he has been teaching in his church community for more than a decade:
● choosing humble service over worldly success
● healing relationships across religious and ethnic divides
● repairing harm against marginalized groups
● giving generously
● providing a political witness rooted in the local church
Bezner shows that Jesus's vision of discipleship points toward a different way of being in the world.
With a foreword by Beth Moore, this book offers a welcome perspective for church leaders and congregants alike who are frustrated with the way many churches pursue values that are not in line with Jesus's teachings and are worried about the American church's credibility crisis.
