The Offensive Church

Crises around race have put the church in a defensive posture, always reacting to racial conflicts in society. But Jesus wants more. He wants Christians to play offense by discipling people into a new humanity, where we push beyond mere diversity and into a biblical vision for ethnic unity. Bryan Loritts calls Christians to proactively and intentionally live out the embodied reality of a people at one with one another. We play offense by practicing a robust gospel, preparing reliable leadership, and providing relational environments so that the church becomes the aroma of Christ to our culture and gains ground against the demonic foothold of racism in all its forms.

Gate Crashers: The Offensive Church makes the case that God desires to work through the church to do abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us, not because we deserve it, but for the praise, honor, and glory of his own name (Eph 3:20-21). Although much modern experience within the ranks of the professing church would cast doubt on this, the Scriptures reveal God's amazing plan and model for his church. While it may be true that our present system of church has drifted away from God's perfect design, the good news is that we can get back on track by submitting to his perfect will! Are you ready to get onboard the Offensive Church and become a gate crasher?

This book was originally written as a training manual for evangelism but then developed into a study of our salvation. The presentation of the gospel is simple so that even a child can understand it and believe it. But it is not enough to give a simple presentation, in order for us to defend the faith in this postmodern world, we need to understand the gospel and its implications for our world. Our Christian imperative is to make disciples of the people groups of the world beginning with where we are and then moving out to the uttermost parts of the world. Culture will only change when people change and they will change only when that change occurs from the inside out. To believe on the Lord Jesus Christ is to be born again, a person changed by the Spirit of God from the inside out. The Church is God's ordained institution on earth but the Church spends too much time on the inside, the time has come to get off our seat, onto our feet and into the street. In view of our postmodern world, passive evangelism is not the answer, it is time to attack.
