Kingdom Triangle Summary

Kingdom Triangle: Recover the Christian Mind, Renovate the Soul, Restore the Spirit's Power by J. P. Moreland

J.P. Moreland-Christian philosopher, theologian, and apologist-issues a call to recapture the drama and power of kingdom living-to cultivate a revolution of Evangelical life, spirituality, thought, and Spirit-led power.

Drawing insights from the early church, he unpacks three essential ingredients of this revolution:

  • Recovery of the Christian mind.
  • Renovation of Christian spirituality.
  • Restoration of the power of the Holy Spirit.

Western society is in crisis: the result of our culture's embrace of naturalism and postmodernism, and a biblical worldview has been pushed to the margins. Christians have been strongly influenced by these trends, with the result that their personal lives often reflect the surrounding culture more than the way of Christ, and the church's transforming influence on society has waned as a result.

Kingdom Triangle is divided into two major sections:

  1. The first examines and provides a critique of secular worldviews and shows how they have ushered in the current societal crisis.
  2. The second lays out a strategy for the Christian community to regain the potency of kingdom life and influence in the world.

Moreland believes that evangelical Christianity can mature and lead the surrounding society out of the meaningless morass it finds itself in with humility and vision. With clear insight, he puts the thoughtful Christian in a position to understand our current cultural struggle and to return to a responsible presentation of the way of Christ as not just a way of right living, but also a way of knowledge and meaningful life.

Kingdom Triangle Reviews

I profited greatly from reading Kingdom Triangle. J. P. Moreland is one of the keenest thinkers of our day; in this book he will challenge you and in the surprise ending perhaps provoke you. But if so it will lead to a very healthy discussion that is much needed within the evangelical church. A fine and thoughtful piece of work. * Chuck Colson, founder, Prison Fellowship *
J. P. Moreland has a first class mind and a heart to match. I have watched him enter more deeply into the things of God's Kingdom over the past four years. Kingdom Triangle is an astute analysis of our culture and its mindset and a profound way forward, within it, for the evangelical church. I highly recommend it. * Lance Pittluck, senior pastor of the Vineyard Church of Anaheim *
J. P. Moreland reveals the hunger in each of us to be part of a grander story and systematically shows how postmodernism and naturalism fail to adequately address this hunger and to offer a coherent way of living. Moreover, he wisely observes that too often followers of Christ live as postmodernists and naturalists, lacking expectancy of God's intervention and the knowledge and spiritual formation necessary for true transformation. A powerful assessment of the Western church and cultural climate with practical, compassionate insights for the Christian journey. * Ravi Zacharias, author and speaker *
Moreland does an outstanding job challenging the believer to pursue happiness --- not in the sense that our 21st century defines it, but rather in the classic sense. He takes the reader on a journey to pursue a life that is well lived, consisting of virtue and character, and one that manifests wisdom, kindness, and goodness. He maps out strategies for this journey with the ultimate end not being pleasurable satisfaction but instead, an end containing a deep sense of well-being. * Ken Smitherman, president, Association of Christian Schools International *
This book is gutsy. As I was reading it, I felt like the proverbial frog in the simmering water getting a wake-up call about my spiritual life. This is a book that is, paradoxically, hard to put down and yet difficult to get through. J. P. points the long, bony finger of truth into the crevices of my mind, heart, and soul. This is a no-holes-barred tome on real spirituality. J. P. lays out an agenda for becoming a holistic Christian, and in so doing, he dons the garb of philosopher, psychologist, and pastor. Passion fills every page. You know that he lives this message! Not everyone will agree with everything that he says, but all will be challenged to think through their views and values. Kingdom Triangle is highly recommended. Strap yourself in and get ready for a great ride! * Daniel B. Wallace, executive director, Center for the Study of New Testament Manuscripts; co-author, Reinventing Jesus: How Contemporary Skeptics Miss the Real Jesus and Mislead Popular Culture *
