“There is a dreadful pattern evident in church history where we continually overcompensate where our Christianity has become imbalanced. We exaggerate the truth that has been neglected, and we keep ending up with a lopsided faith… then we wind up with Jesus-lovers that forget justice and justice-lovers that forget Jesus. It is my hope that this book helps cure our bifurcated “either/or” mentality that keeps separating things that must be held together — loving God and loving people, the great commandment and the great commission, a God that is personal and a God that is social… may the pages of this book remind us that Jesus and Justice must kiss, and that loving God and loving people are like the blades of scissors — they’ve got to stick together.”

Thanks for the kind words Shane!
