Sacrifice Costly grace and glorious privilege

‘Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God – this is your spiritual act of worship.’ Sacrifice…It’s a familiar word, but what does literally mean for us to respond to the Apostle Paul’s timeless call to offer our bodies to God as living sacrifices? On the pages of this short book you’ll find an urgent and serious rallying cry – a call for God’s people everywhere to sacrifice everything for Him. Simon Guillebaud draws on the examples of many Christians who have gone before, and passionately teaches again Paul’s challenge, leaving us with some probing questions to answer… Where are the young men and women who will hold themselves to be something cheap in comparison to God’s work? Where are those who will live their lives for Christ’s sake? Where are those who will live dangerously and be reckless in His service? Where are those who love Him and the souls of men more than their own reputation? Are you in?

I chose this rating simply because I believe this is what God is longing for from everyone who claims to be a follower of Christ. Easy Christianity seems to be the order of the day, whereas God is looking for commitment. May many read this book and answer God's call. Abiding
