Death is the New Life. As Christians we talk often about resurrection, but what about our death and the many daily "deaths" that must come first? Through stories and biblical insights, Rick James reminds us that when Jesus tells us to deny ourselves, take up our crosses and follow Him, He is describing a path OF death, not a path TO death. A we learn to embrace the little deaths of everyday existence, we lose our taste for lifeless religiosity. Our appetite for a thriving, vibrant life in Christ grows - and our own experience motivates others to live out their extraordinary missions on earth. As James so vividly illustrates, death is not an ending - it's an invitation to more abundant life.
