From Kregel,
There are Zombies among us
Liars. Hypocrites. Men, women, and children who attend church because it’s what they are supposed to do. Just going through the motions. These are the undead–ÂÂpeople who are disconnected from the Spirit of God–who are spreading a virus of passivity, or worse. No one is completely immune.
Zombies can live. But they will have to fight. Fight for their lives.
In this challenging, culturally relevant book, Tyler Edwards spotlights the very real but often ignored lackluster attitude of today’s believers. An attitude that can infect an entire church. Using examples from popular zombie movies, Edwards will help you recognize the symptoms and show what you can do to awaken the undead. Your mission is to take life to a dying world by demonstrating what it means to “love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength” (Mark 12:30 niv).
The bride of Christ isn’t dead. But she is terribly sick. Zombie Church offers the keys to survival.
Tyler Edwards graduated from Ozark Christian College in Missouri and is now the senior pastor at Cornerstone Christian Church. He speaks at various campus ministry events and has served overseas. This is his first book.
Expect a review soon…
Christianity has been marketed as a commodity. Not surprisingly, therefore, church members have become consumers. Denominations are merely brand names. Because of unfavorable consumer reviews, some carry more baggage than others. Meanwhile, God seems less than interested in a product recalls of defective units.
Actually, I look forward to the review.
1. Please include whether the author believes in inerrancy, since this is a major issue for me.
2. Then, in light of the statement, ” Men, women, and children who attend church because it’s what they are supposed to do. Just going through the motions”…
So, what’s so bad about that? Instead of zombies, are the church goers suppose to be fanatics?
3. Finally, has the author actually seen zombie movies? It fits in with the lukewarm post. I don’t see anything wrong with lukewarm. Zombies are on one extreme, fanatical evangelical fundamentalists are on the other extreme. I prefer to be lukewarm, like the three bears, not too big, not too small, but just right.
i think that can be arranged!
