Book Review: "Radical" by David Platt


I recently received a complimentary copy of the book "Radical" by David Platt from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group as part of their book review program. The opinions listed below are my honest opinion of the book.
This book is a wonderful, encouraging, and challenging book about Christians living in today's society of American culture. David Platt explains how Christ called His followers to take up their cross and follow Him daily no matter what the costs. How many of us truly live like that though in today's society? David challenges Christians to take a closer look into their hearts and lives to see if you are truly living how the Lord intended us to live as Christians. He also uses a story of a suburban church that has decided to get serious about what Christ says about the gospel and how they have been very successful. David ends this book with a challenge to join in the Radical Experiment which is a one-year journey truly following the Lord the way He commanded to spread the Good News to our world. I would encourage every Christian to read this book as a challenge to examine your life and see if you are really living the way Christ intends for us to live.
