If My Kingdom were of this World, then my Servants would Fight

This is an informational book written by Shawn McCraney, a Christian pastor (my pastor) who lives here in Salt Lake City, Utah. This is Shawn's third book, he has also written Mormonism Meets Christianity Face to Face, and I was a Born Again Mormon in 2004. Now, the reason he wrote this book was to inform people about modern Christianity, and all the things the world is overlooking. Shawn believes in living your Christian life according to the Bible, and nothing else. This book shows how Christians are living their lives in this "Fallen World", and he teaches us what we are clearly missing. On the front cover, he says it is "A believer's refusal to join popular Christian culture".
Now, he has split this book up into two main parts, part one is "The Church and the World", which consists of what I have already stated; the world versus the Bible. Part two, "The Philosophy Behind Passive Prayerful Christian Indifference". This section consists of the same kind of material to a degree, but it focuses a lot on the Bible, and events that happened mainly in the old testament (Bible is split up into two parts, the new testament and the old testament). In one of my favorite paragraphs from the book, Shawn says, "Unfortunately, the present day Body of Christ has mistakenly become better known for what we stand against (abortion, pornography, homosexuality, evolution, ect.) than what we ought to be truly standing for-the Gospel of Jesus Christ." His general method to prove a point is to quote a verse from the Bible, then go through it literally word for word, and untangle what it is trying to communicate. And take my word for it, he does an outstanding job.
It really taught me a lot of things that have just been going over my head. It teaches how to actually comprehend each statement, and figure out what it means. Which can expand past Christianity. Overall, I thought this was an amazing book, with the reasoning he gives, and the points he clarifies. It was the best nonfiction book I have ever read.
