Publisher Description

Discipleship is costly. Are we willing to critique and even challenge much we've been taught for the sake of the kingdom? For this is the radical nature of the discipleship to which Jesus calls us. He did not allow the outside culture to hold him captive; instead he established the kingdom of God and turned the world on its head. Jesus was untamed, and he calls his church to be the same. In this provocative and compelling book, internationally known missiologists Alan and Debra Hirsch overthrow culturized understandings of theology and culture, and cast a vision for a distinctly mission-shaped way of living the Christian life. Written for any Christian serious about issue of discipleship, Untamed covers such topics as church, humans as bearers of the image of God, family life, culture, and sexuality. Through it all they seek to answer the question, how are we to think and live day to day as followers of Jesus? Each chapter ends with suggested practices to help readers begin to live out the book's principles as well as questions for group discussion.

"Great book that looks at how we view discipleship and the church in the west. We went through it with a few other couples, reading the Gospel of Mark through every time we read a chapter. An encouraging season. I'd encourage anyone to read it through, especially with someone else to discuss it with!"

Quotes

  • “A desperately needed shot of spiritual adrenaline into our mild-mannered and mediocre attempts at following Christ.”

    — Rick Warren, author of The Purpose Driven Life

  • “This dynamic duo gives prophetic voice to what it means to become missional, outwardly-focused followers of Jesus. This is a book to be read and wrestled with.”

    — Margaret Feinberg, author of Scouting the Divine and The Organic God

  • “Alan and Debra Hirsch are prophets to a church imprisoned by domesticated, consumer values. Untamed is a vision of life with Jesus that goes beyond what other authors have covered.”

    — Skye Jethani, author of The Divine Commodity

    " So many things about which to think. Two things that really had an impact on me is the definition of discipleship and the Image of God concept presented in this book. It has rejuvenated my life and how I see people. "

    " This was a really challenging read. And by that I mean it challenged my lifestyle and what it means to be a Christian. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is dissatisfied with their present spiritual walk and wondering what's wrong. "
