Synopsis

Christians who want to take the next step in their faith walk need look no further. It's time to ante up and go all in with God.The Gospel costs nothing. You can't earn it or buy it. It can only be received as a free gift, which is compliments of God's grace. It doesn't cost anything, but it demands everything. It demands that we go "all in," putting all that we have into God's hands. But why do so many Christians hesitate to do that? And when did we start believing that the Gospel is an insurance plan? We're afraid that if we go all in that we might miss out on what life has to offer. But Jesus did not die to keep us safe. He died to make us dangerous.So, let's step out of spiritual no man's land and kneel at the foot of the cross of Christ and surrender to his lordship. It's time to dethrone yourself and enthrone Christ as king, and Pastor Mark Batterson is here to show you how.Using his customary vivid, contemporary illustrations, as well as biblical characters like Shamgar, Elisha, Jonathan, and even Judas, you will be challenged to trade what Batterson calls "inverted Christianity" for true discipleship as you strip away your excuses and inhibitions and follow God completely.It's now or never. Are you ready to go all in and all out for God?Also available: All In student edition, video curriculum, and study guide.

Goodreads review by Janet on September 08, 2014

The subtitle of this book is "You are one decision away from a totally different life." The decision? To go "all in" with God, holding nothing back. Author Mark Batterson breaks this down to not just "all in" but going "all out" for our "all in all" in an "all or nothing" way. Brief anecdotes (person......more

Goodreads review by Ann | This Quiet Heart Reads on October 09, 2024

I liked the message of this book. However, I felt that it could have been a blog post rather than a full length book. It felt pretty repetitive to me. I would say still worth the read since the message itself is worth it. Another issue I had was that there was not a lot of Biblical quotes. The notes......more

The Pain of Change This book is a game changer. My mentor suggested it and now I know why. You can't honestly read this book on going all in for God and be the same.
