Description

Love and wrath. Sovereignty and responsibility. Victory and
suffering. Some of the truths we read in the Bible seem to be in
opposition to each other. We naturally tend to gravitate towards a
side, but when we lose sight of one truth in order to protect the
other, we are in danger of becoming proud, creating division, and
diminishing our faith.

In this compelling, inspiring, and at times provocative book, Adam
Mabry urges us to stop taking sides and refuse to participate in
tribalism by mapping out a way to hold in tension truths that we so
often divide over.

You’ll discover how our joy and our witness rest on us learning to
hold to all that the Scriptures teach and growing in virtue as we
do. You’ll learn how to wrestle with all that the Scriptures say, to
embrace mystery, to listen closely, and to speak with clarity.

Adam is Lead Pastor of Aletheia Church, part of the All
Nations Church network.
