For many of us, normal Christianity is comfortable and secure, isolated and based on all the evils we don't do. But what if our norm isn't normal to God? God isn't satisfied for us to settle for normal in our lives. He calls us to redefine normal as we get to know him better and learn more about his heart. God wants more than a church institution looking to protect the gospel in a fallen world. He wants a community of changed people reaching out to extend the gift of Christ and fulfill his redemptive purposes in the world he loves.
Redefining Normal challenges us to re-examine the norm in both culture and Christianity. Many of us have believed a half-gospel that says Christianity is all about what we don't do. The truth is there is much more to following God. God desires us to both celebrate the grace of God and continue to grow in holiness. As we learn to live under the moral boundaries that God sets up for us, we also learn to focus on the postures of faith, hope and love that God wants us to center our lives on. Through it all, we see God redeeming the world he loves and doing it through us.
