The Unsaved Christian: Reaching Cultural Christianity with the Gospel

What to do when they say they're Christian but don't know Jesus. Whether it's the Christmas and Easter Christians or the faithful church attenders whose hearts are cold toward the Lord, we've all encountered cultural Christians. They'd check the Christian box on a survey, they're fine with church, but the truth is, they're far from God. So how do we bring Jesus to this overlooked mission field? The Unsaved Christian equips you to confront cultural Christianity with honesty, compassion, and grace, whether you're doing it from the pulpit or the pews. This practical guide will:
• show you how to recognize cultural Christianity
• teach you how to overcome the barriers that get in the way
• give you easy-to-understand advice about VBS, holiday services, reaching "good people," and more!
If you've ever felt stuck or unsure how to minister to someone who identifies as Christian but still needs Jesus, this book is for you.

‘The Unsaved Christian: Reaching Cultural Christianity with the Gospel by Dean Inserra asks the question “what to do when they say they’re Christian but don’t know Jesus?” Cultural Christianity is described as a mindset that places one's security in heritage, values, rites of passage and a general duty rather than in the redemptive work of Jesus Christ. We have all encountered cultural Christians in many ways. They may even be us. They check the Christian box, they are fine with church but they are far from God. How do we bring Jesus to this mission field in our own backyards, in our own churches? In The Unsaved Christian, Mr. Inserra identifies eight Cultural Christians, across denominations from the Christmas and Easter Christians to the Bible Belt Christian, and sets out to equip pastors, teachers and fellow Christians to confront cultural Christians with honesty, compassion and grace. In this book, Mr. Inserra shows how to recognize each type, ways to overcome barriers that get in the way and offers easy to understand advice to minister to those who identify as Christian but still need Jesus.’ Jennifer Lara
