Roger Carswell asks the question, Why does it matter anyway? The chapters are headed - A Christian has recognised who God is; A Christian has repented of wrong; A Christian has received what Jesus offers; A Christian is revelling in what they have.
Rogers writes, This little volume is unpacking the distinctives that make Christian belief so vibrant and joyful. It attempts to unearth the core beliefs that Christians have in common.
Direct but winsome, interesting, evangelistic but also for new believers.
-- Evangelical Magazine of WalesRoger's enthusiasm for Jesus is infectious and, through his ministry, many have caught the bug! This little book bubbles over with life as we're pointed again and again to the Lord Jesus. A great introduction for enquirers.
Roger writes to feed and challenge the intellect, to warm the heart and to pull at the will for a clear response. This is not only a book; it is a compelling and convincing evangelistic talk! There is huge confusion as people answer this question and this book helpfully deals with all the reason for that confusion. There is a real honesty about the bad news for people, but a wonderful joy about the good news. It is all written by a man whose heart has so obviously been gripped by the Lord Jesus and His wonderful gospel.
What is a Christian? is a clear, compelling and concise introduction to the life of faith. It's amazing how much wonderful truth can be squeezed into just 80 pages!
