Christianity’s infamy is that our way and our faith have not been very Christlike. A More Christlike Way is a book for our time, where so much of what is called Christianity has been hijacked to serve agendas that are decidedly un-Christlike. In this sequel to A More Christlike God, Brad Jersak an award winning author, accomplished theologian, grounded in Scripture and Patristics, writes from decades of pastoral experience. A More Christlike Way is a book about Jesus Christ. Jersak lays out how Jesus Christ of Nazareth, in his fully human nature, forged the path for a new and true humanity. We’ll call it the Jesus Way.The author critiques four common counterfeits to the Jesus Way:1 Moralism: When Morality Becomes Heresy2 Partisan Amoralism: When Politics Trump Morality3 Retributive Factionalism: Are You on the Spectrum? 4 Nationalism & Civil ReligionHe then describes seven facets of a more Christlike Way:Facet 1 – Radical Self-givingFacet 2 – Radical HospitalityFacet 3 – Radical UnityFacet 4 – Radical RecoveryFacet 5 – Radical Peacemaking/Forgiveness Facet 6 – Radical SurrenderFacet 7 – Radical Compassion/JusticeFinally, Jersak closes with “A More Beautiful Vision: Abba’s ‘I have a dream speech’”A More Christlike Way sets forth a vision for following Jesus that is in keeping with the kind of faith that first turned the world upside down two thousand years ago.
