The Barbarian Way: Unleash the Untamed Faith Within
Comfort was never the point.
Twenty years after it first challenged a generation, The Barbarian Way returns in a new anniversary edition.
About The Book
Jesus called His followers into a life of risk, passion, and sacrifice. Over time, many of us traded that call for something safer. We learned the rules. We kept the routines. We grew comfortable.
In The Barbarian Way, Erwin Raphael McManus invites you back to the raw, untamed faith of the first followers of Jesus. Drawing on the words of Jesus about John the Baptist, he calls you to a faith that moves with God wherever He leads, whatever it costs.
This book is for anyone who senses there is more to following Jesus than being a good person. It is a call to love with intensity, to live with courage, and to give your whole heart to the One who makes you fully alive.
What This Book Calls You To
Live with courage
Step out of the safety of the familiar and follow God into the unknown.
Love with intensity
Rediscover a faith built on passion, intimacy, and sacrifice.
Move with purpose
Trade routine for mission and find the life you were created to live.
From The Book
"Instead of concluding it is best to be wherever God wants us to be, we have decided that wherever it is best for us to be is where God wants us. Actually, God's will for us is less about our comfort than it is about our contribution. God would never choose for us safety at the cost of significance."
