I have read this book twice already in less than six months. Some books are good, some books are great and there are some books that are life-changing and this is one book that has transformed how I preach, lead, pray and live.
I had to stop during the reading of this book to just pray and thank God for His infinite love and grace for me.Tullian Tchividjian’s book Jesus + Nothing = Everything
A few of my take home from this book:
1. I need to preach the gospel to myself everyday. I need to see everything with gospel lenses.
2. The only solution and source of what I need is found in Christ.
Everything – Jesus = Nothing
Jesus + Nothing = Everything
Book Synopsis: It’s so easy to forget what the Christian faith is all about. We struggle so much, work so hard, and fail so often that we frequently sense something in the equation of life must be missing.
Tullian Tchividjian argues that what we are missing is the gospel—a fuller, more powerful understanding of Jesus and what his finished work means for everyday life.
During a year of great turmoil, Pastor Tchividjian discovered the power of the gospel in his own life. Sharing his story of how Jesus became more real to him, Tchividjian delves deeply into the fundamentals of the faith, explaining the implications of Christ’s sufficiency—a revelation that sets us free and keeps us anchored through life’s storms.
Ultimately, Tchividjian reminds us that Jesus is the whole of the equation as he boldly proclaims that Jesus plus nothing really is everything
