Review of Practicing the Way in Firebrand Magazine
and also, Merry Christmas!
Hey friends, Merry Christmas Eve!
Firebrand Magazine published a review I wrote of John Mark Comer’s book, Practicing the Way. I wanted to share that article with you, and also encourage you to subscribe to Firebrand if you haven’t already—every week they are posting excellent articles from the best of the Wesleyan world, and you just don’t want to miss it. Anyhow, here’s my article:
A New Wesley on the West Coast? John Mark Comer's Call to Become Apprentices of Jesus by Cambron Wright
From the article:
Based on the popularity and resonance of his work, it looks as if Comer is becoming one of the leading voices in American Christianity, changing the conversation about what churches should focus on in order to become resilient disciples in the post-Christian West. We Wesleyans should take heart in this. We need more apprentices of Jesus, rather than attendees without transformation. We need more small groups of real Christian fellowship, and fewer informational meetings to learn about the Bible. We need more people practicing Sabbath with friends and family, and fewer families too busy with travel sports and extracurriculars to have a shared meal around the table. We need more people praying and fasting in the Holy Spirit, and fewer people who view prayer as a chore, one more thing to add to their calendar.
