Description
The Upside-Down Kingdom Anniversary Edition by Donald B. Kraybill This updated anniversary edition of The Upside-Down Kingdom invites readers to reimagine the reign of God on earth as it is in heaven. Since its initial publication in 1978, the book has become a trusted resource on radical Christian discipleship, winning the National Religious Book Award. In this revised edition, author Donald B. Kraybill explores the significance of Jesus' teachings, which turned expectations upside down. The kingdom of God is full of surprises, and this book encourages readers to be prepared for the unexpected. The book asks questions about the nature of following Christ, who traded victory and power for serving the poor and forgiving enemies. Kraybill examines how Jesus' actions challenged the established order in first-century Palestine, and what this might mean for us today. A free downloadable study guide is available to support further exploration. The Upside-Down Kingdom Anniversary Edition is a thought-provoking exploration of radical Christian discipleship, encouraging readers to embody the reign of God in their daily lives.
