Simple Christianity

Front Cover
Xulon Press, 2007 - Religion - 340 pages
Understanding God and what He thinks of us isn't supposed to be that complicated. Simple Christianity takes the teachings of the Christian faith and makes them understandable and relevant. Dave Brown brings new perspective and insight to fundamental Christian beliefs that will give mature Christians cause to reflect, encouraging them to experience more of God's presence and power in their lives. New Christians will get a head start on experiencing the life that God hopes for them. Non-Christian readers will truly understand what Christians believe and perhaps find themselves drawn to the unconditional, life-changing love of Jesus. Dave's writing reflects his personality: honest, humorous, thought-provoking, yet extremely practical. Simple Christianity will challenge you and spur you to grow. - Brett Stewart, Minister of Pastoral Care at The People's Church, Franklin, TN. I've been affirmed, entertained, enlightened, moved, and challenged. I laughed through Chapter 2, wept through Chapter 3, and 'amen'ed my way through Chapter 6. I love the chapter titles. Dave does a great job of presenting scripture and complicated theological explanations in "simple" ways that the average person can understand and relate to. - Debbie Hawkins Dave Brown is a pastor with degrees in philosophy/religion and electrical engineering. He's a writer, a speaker, and a preacher with a passion for helping others realize the incredible life they can experience as Christians. He co-authored The Covenant Marriage Workbook (Covenant vs. Contract) with Phil Waugh of The Covenant Marriage Movement. He also leads marriage retreats and conferences, has developed a guide for initiating marriage mentoring programs, and he and his wife, Lisa, counsel/mentor couples and individuals. Dave and Lisa have been married for over 25 years and have two college-aged children, Corey and Allison. They live in Franklin, TN. For more information, visit www.davebrownministries.com.
