It\u0026#39;s easy to dream about the \u0026quot;perfect-church--a church that sings just the right songs set to just the right music before the pastor preaches just the right sermon to a room filled with just the right mix of people who happen to agree with you on just about everything. Chances are your church doesn\u0026#39;t quite look like that. But what if instead of searching for a church that makes us comfortable, we learned to love our church, even when it\u0026#39;s challenging? What if some of the discomfort that we often experience is actually good for us? This book is a call to embrace the uncomfortable aspects of Christian community, whether that means believing difficult truths, pursuing difficult holiness, or loving difficult people -- all for the sake of the gospel, God\u0026#39;s glory, and our joy.","author_name":"Brett McCracken","author_url":"https://hardcover.app/authors/brett-mccracken","thumbnail_url":"https://assets.hardcover.app/edition/4096123/33583890._SX98_.jpg","thumbnail_width":98,"thumbnail_height":151}
