About this product
Product Information
"Dave allowed God to navigate him through the pain of religious moralism to arrive at insightful, compelling, and gracious wisdom. He remains a sincere lover of God's church and people as he directs weary pilgrims to safer lodging." --John Lynch, coauthor of TrueFaced and Bo's Caf Have you been betrayed by a Christian friend? Are you disillusioned with the church? If you have been hurt by Christians, you know all about anger and resentment. But what about a workable solution? How can the words and actions of "bad Christians" be addressed so the mistakes are not repeated? When Bad Christians Happen to Good People offers a workable response and, ultimately, a new way of living. In this revised and updated edition, you will find healing for hurts infl icted by others. At the same time, you will discover ways to help Christians and church leaders recognize the damage that is done by unexamined assumptions, words, and actions. After dealing with his own hurt, Dave Burchett now shows believers how to: Live as Jesus followers, not rule enforcers Stop using religious performance as the standard for accepting others Let go of moralism, legalism, and an allegiance to trying harder Discover God's grace as a daily reality, not just a word to use in evangelism Working toward a solution will benefi t your own life at the same time it helps others. Whether you have been a bad Christian in the past, or have been hurt by one, there is a better way to live. Discussion Guide Included for Individual and Small-Group Use

Praise for When Bad Christians Happen to Good People "In When Bad Christians Happen to Good People , Dave indeed succeeds in making Christians think carefully and in getting us out of our comfort bunkers. I know that Bob would be chuckling with me at Dave's sense of humor as he addresses very tough issues. I recommend it heartily to all who are serious in their commitment to be Jesus to our world." -Marty Briner, widow of Bob Briner, who authored Roaring Lambs and Final Roar "Even though I'm not a betting man, I'll bet you've never read a book like this one. Here is a no-holds-barred look at what's right, what's wrong, and what's really weird about the Christian movement in America. At the end of the day, Dave Burchett has a heart for the church, for the gospel, and for people who don't know the Lord. Christians could make a powerful difference in our world. But we ourselves must change. This book points us in the right direction." -Dr. Ray Pritchard, author, conference speaker, and senior pastor of Calvary Memorial Church in Oak Park, Illinois "This book is excellent. Dave Burchett sends a wake-up call to all believers that our behavior and our attitudes can have a profound effect on how the Message is received. National research shows that there is a great disparity between how the world views Christians and how it views the person of Jesus Christ. When Bad Christians Happen to Good People challenges people of faith to live a life that shows the world love, hope, and encouragement." -John Frost, noted strategic broadcast consultant "Dave allowed God to navigate him through the pain of religious moralism to arrive at insightful, compelling, and gracious wisdom. He remains a sincere lover of God's church and people as he directs weary pilgrims to safer lodging. His self-effacing humor allows us to examine our religious culture without having to defend it." -John Lynch, coauthor of TrueFaced and Bo's Café "After reading this book, I was motivated to take a personal inventory of my daily walk with Jesus. As I read page after page, I jotted down nuggets of wisdom, words of encouragement, and new ways to strengthen my relationship with Jesus, with other Christians, and with those who are not believers." -Clint Hurdle, manager of the Pittsburgh Pirates "Dave Burchett strikes out sometimes but happily hits home runs like Sammy Sosa. His comments about the sinner-sensitive church and CSL (Christian as a Second Language), his WJSHTOT question (Would Jesus Spend His Time on This?), and his "Don't Know Much About Theology" song are all terrific." -Marvin Olasky, editor of World and senior fellow of the Acton Institute "When I need someone to convince me that there is still hope in spite of the bad Christianity I see all around me, I talk to Dave Burchett. He makes me laugh, makes me cry, and makes me think. And in the end, he helps me fall back in love with the bride of Christ. In the pages of When Bad Christians Happen to Good People , you can join in that conversation." -Ed Underwood, author of When God Breaks Your Heart and Reborn to Be Wild, Praise for When Bad Christians Happen to Good People "In When Bad Christians Happen to Good People , Dave indeed succeeds in making Christians think carefully and in getting us out of our comfort bunkers.

Item as described, good price, well packaged, arrived slightly later than hoped (not in time for Christmas ) but the order was placed in a very busy shipping period. No issue with the seller’s speed of response and sending the item. Great seller!

I was pleasantly surprised by how soon I received this textbook given that it shipped from outside the U.S. It was packaged well with no damage. The price was right. And I greatly appreciated the communication informing me where the book was shipping from and including a tracking number. Overall, a positive experience, - online shopping the way it should be. I've bought books from this seller several times now without any complaints and will surely buy from them again. Thanks a lot!

Quality and hard to find book that won't be released 'til January 2025 in the U.S.A.
Fantastic price.
Book was in a secure and protective package. Arrived a few days after I placed order and that was faster than I expected.
Seller is a fantastic communicator and proactive in regards to tracking status. I'd definitely buy from them in the future.
