Love, Acceptance, and Forgiveness: Being Christian in a Non World

Clear teaching about the church in a hurting world: Only when believers admit their own brokenness can churches love, accept, and forgive those who are hurting around them and put out the welcome mat to their communities. How can the church be a healing force in the world? In this longtime bestseller, now revised and updated, authors Jerry Cook and Stanley C. Baldwin suggest that it is only when believers admit their own brokenness that they can love, accept, and forgive those who are hurting around them and put out the welcome mat to their community. They offer clear teaching about the church in a hurting world. As veteran leaders who practice these principles, they speak from experience, not theory. Through touching true stories and practical guidelines for connecting with fallen, sinful people, Cook and Baldwin announce the good news. The church is not broken, and it is the broken people who can change the world.
