The Christian Life: A Nazarene Perspective

by Carla D. Sunberg

Making Christlike disciples in the nations requires equipping people for the Christian life, the purpose of which is to become more and more like Christ. The invitation to live like Christ is a journey in which we continually turn from the ways of this world and x our eyes on our Savior. As we do, we move ever closer toward Jesus with the aid and guidance of the Holy Spirit and accountability from our fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. In The Christian Life, General Superintendent Carla Sunberg explores the paragraphs from the Nazarene Manual that discuss what living in a Christlike way might look like from the Nazarene perspective.

An ok introduction/summary of how Nazarene values are lived out in all areas of life. It's intended to be accessible but comes across a bit simplistic and optimistic. I wanted more nuance considering the weight of the topics. I feel it's trying to start a conversation with easy answers that don't create space for challenge and response.
