Unfashionable



















Unfashionable by Tullian Tchividjian
Have you ever noticed that some Christians are indistinguishable from the rest of the world? Or on the other end of the spectrum have you noticed that some completely seperate themselves? In this book Tullian Tchividjian sets out to navigate the readers through the murky waters of interacting with culture and the world. All Christians need to think through this critical issue. Tullian does a great job of clearly explaining from the bible what it means to be in the world but not of the world. This is a great resource for anyone that claims they are a christian and interacts with the world... (all of us).

Here is what others are saying:

D. A. Carson: "It is not easy to stand athwart the tides of the culture and challenge them without sounding either terribly prissy or hopelessly out of date. How can a thoughtful Christian be genuinely contemporary while never succumbing to the merely faddish and temporary? The challenges are enormous - but they are also tied to the most elementary tenets of Christian faithfulness. Tullian Tchividjian is a helpful and engaging guide through these troubled waters."

J. I. Packer: "Plainly, powerfully, and pastorally, Unfashionable gives a birds-eye view of the real Christian life - Christ-centered, church-committed, kingdom-contoured, future-focused, and counter-cultural all the way. It makes for a truly nutritious read."
