But, as Willard clearly shows, a faith that guarantees a satisfactory afterlife, yet has absolutely no impact on life in the here and now, is nothing more than \"consumer Christianity\" and \"bumper-sticker faith.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWillard refutes this \"fire escape\" mentality and offers a practical plan by which we can become Christ-like. He challenges us to step aside from the politics and pieties of contemporary Christian practice and inspires us to reject the all too common lukewarm faith of our times by embracing the true meaning of Christian discipleship.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HarperCollins Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47150650786032,"sku":"2940170196975","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940170196975_p0.jpg?v=1763704468","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940170196975","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
