Synopsis

Whether the issue of the day on Twitter, Facebook, or cable news is our sexuality, political divides, or the perceived conflict between faith and science, today’s media pushes each one of us into a frustrating clash between two opposing sides. Polarizing, us-against-them discussions divide us and distract us from thinking clearly and communicating lovingly with others.Scott Sauls, like many of us, is weary of the bickering and is seeking a way of truth and beauty through the conflicts. Jesus outside the Lines presents Jesus as this way. Sauls shows us how the words and actions of Jesus reveal a response that does not perpetuate the destructive fray. Jesus offers us a way forward—away from harshness, caricatures, and stereotypes.

Goodreads review by Michele

“What we want, if men become Christians at all, is to keep them in the state of mind I call, ‘Christianity And.’ If they must be Christians, let them at least be Christians with a difference. Substitute for the faith itself some Fashion with a Christian coloring.” Screwtape In Part One of Jesus Outsi......more

Goodreads review by Liam

This book is excellent! This book should be read by every Christian. Sauls’ take on the big issues of our time is a refreshingly non-partisan one. If you are a particularly politically partisan Christian, this book will challenge you greatly - to your benefit. The chapters on politics, abortion, sex......more

Goodreads review by Jordan

Scott Sauls is winsome. His honesty and humility are inspiring and compelling. The Jesus we worship is a Jesus who defied expectations.
