A Jesus-Shaped Life

How Diving Deeper into Theology Can Transform Us and Our World with the Radical Kindness of God

De: Lisa Harper, Scot McKnight - foreword

Narrado por: Mike Chamberlain, Lisa Harper

When many of us hear the word theology, we conjure up visions of stuffy old guys in dark clothing, scratching a pen across paper (or maybe a quill across parchment!) and assume that it's not for us. But at its most basic, theology is just words (logos) about God (theos). Conversations, if you will, about the most important part of our lives—our good, loving, and grace-filled God.

With her signature style and humor, bestselling Bible teacher Lisa Harper invites you into this life-changing conversation. She makes theology fun, practical, and applicable, explaining how academic-sounding concepts—such as imago Dei, atonement, the Trinity, the transcendence and immanence of Christ, and much more—are actually daily realities that make an enormous difference in how we live our lives, how we treat other people, and how we understand our own relationship to our Creator.

If you want to grow closer to God and take a more active role in your community of faith, it's time to take your understanding of God to the next level with sound theology rooted in Scripture. Let Lisa be your (very entertaining) guide!

Breath of Fresh Air

So glad I didn't believe the negative reviews. This is definitely not a dusty, confusing theology book. She does a fantastic job of connecting the dots between the Old and New Testaments, giving us a deeper understanding of our faith. And she's funny. Highly recommend.

Lisa knows how to speak to the heart!

One thing I love about Lisa is she will not only teach you the Bible, but teach you the background of Jesus’ time. Lisa has been such a huge part of my walk with Jesus and I will be forever grateful the Lord chose her Bible study for my women’s Bible study about 10 years ago. She broke things down for my struggling mind to understand and she continues to do so! I have seen Lisa speak five times and one of those times I got a huge hug and an autograph. Lisa uses great examples from the Bible to engage you and show you how we are still experiencing the same circumstances and how God graciously wants to be with us!

This book is for Theologians

I was so disappointed in this book. The title is misleading. I follow Lisa Harper and enjoy her on TV. This is not a lay man's book to a Jesus Shaped Life. For individuals looking for that life by reading this book they may want to go to seminary first. I was doubly disappointed how she repeatedly used language that was not necessarily familiar to church going or the average spirit filled Christian. Perhaps she wrote it for her seminary school peers but not for those of us wanting to know Jesus more.

This is a seminary level book

I saw Ms Turner on a talk show and was impressed with her. I immediately ordered her book and was very disappointed when listening to it that it was difficult to follow with all the technical terminology. I was expecting and desiring a down to earth book from a real Christian woman. Very disappointed.
