The Christian Life is hard - and we often face questions of calling, purpose, and meaning.We ask ourselves, often, "What am I supposed to do?""How should I live?"This books seeks to answer those deep questions while avoiding particular pitfalls that plague evangelicalism ( namely legalism, superficiality, and liberalism ).Embodied is focused on ten aspects of human living, from love to wisdom to relationships, and invites us into living and loving as Jesus intends.
Josh Nadeau's work on Instagram as Sword and Pencil is amazing. His art stirs my affections and his writing does the same. This short book is about Image, Kingdom, and what it looks like to embody the realities of both as followers of Jesus. Though the book does hold the aforementioned theme, each chapter seems to be a self-contained work rather than pieces that come together as one work. I do recommend this book as a prompt for thinking on the Christian life.
