God is at work – and He invites you to join Him
It's easy to get discouraged by the headlines. It can often feel as if God has left the building and we are on our own. This soul-stirring book cuts through the chaos and uncertainty to show you how God is powerfully active and intensely engaged in fulfilling His promise to restore all things. Through inspiring real-life stories of justice, mercy, love, and forgiveness in our communities and neighborhoods, you'll encounter a God who is intimately involved in His creation and using His church to work out the redemption of this world.

Another
valuable read from Baker Books, Restoring All Things: God’s Audacious Plan
to Change the World through Everyday People by Warren Cole Smith and John
Stonestreet explores God’s restoration at work in the world. Smith and
Stonestreet tell encouraging examples of restoration in various aspects of
culture and through the participation of ordinary Christians, and their book
had me thoroughly captivated and challenged. All-around interesting, inspiring
and motivating, Restoring All Things is a book I highly recommend to any
Christian reader.
Thanks to Baker Book Bloggers, I received a copy of Restoring
All Things and the opportunity to provide an honest review. I was not
required to write a positive review, and all the opinions I have expressed are
my own.
