Jesus Drives Me Crazy

This book is a biblical and theological meditation on the meaning of discipleship a discipleship defined not in terms of those who throng Jesus, but of those who throne Jesus. What it means to “throne him” is to let Jesus drive you crazy crazy in the sense that it goes against how normal people see and function in the world. A disciple is someone who is crazy in love with Jesus. Christians don’t do normal. One of the biggest mistakes a Christian can make is to believe that the way they see the world is the way most other people see the world. We see the world differently. We9re abnormal. We’re weird. We’re eccentric. Christians have an off-kilter view of the world. Loving your enemies, turning the other cheek, going the second mile, living without anger, living without lusting, being strong in the broken places_all these things normal people just have a hard time thinking these thoughts and living these ways. There is the “World According to Normal” where most Christians currently live. This book calls Christians to the World According to NUTS . . . where NUTS is an acronym for Never Underestimate the Spirit.
