Description
Learning to Extend God's Compassion to Those Who Need It Most
In love, Jesus came to redeem sinful people and restore a fallen world, and he invites all of his followers to join this good work. But how can believers effectively care for their neighbors when life is so marred by sin and suffering? Is it possible for ordinary Christians to participate in God's mission to restore a broken world?
From a theological perspective, Go and Do Likewise explores God's grand story of redemption to uncover how ordinary Christians can extend God's compassion to those in need. Author Amy DiMarcangelo builds on biblical principles and provides discussion questions for everyday application. This practical book encourages believers to joyfully engage in Christ's mission-relying on the gospel to spur mercy, justice, and generosity to those who need it most.
Explores the Gospel to Shape Christlike Christians: Encourages believers to show mercy, justice, generosity, and love to those who need it most
Interactive: Discussion questions provide readers with reflection and everyday application
Appeals to Laypeople and Church Leaders Alike: Encourages the everyday Christian and provides church leaders with practical actions for church ministry
