Off the Shelf: Blind Spots

Blind Spots: Becoming a Courageous, Compassionate, and Commissioned Church

By Collin Hansen

The world needs bold, united followers of Jesus. It needs you and me to understand and appreciate the contributions of our brothers and sisters in faith. However, too often, our blind spots lead to divisions and disagreements, preventing God’s people from testifying to his grace with one voice.

In this provocative book, Collin Hansen helps us view our differences as opportunities to more effectively engage a needy world with the love of Christ. Highlighting the diversity of thought, experience, and personality that God has given to his people, Blind Spots lays the foundation for a new generation of Christians eager to cultivate a courageous, compassionate, and commissioned church.

Collin Hansen is one of those guys about whom you say, “I knew him when….” Collin, a former colleague at CT, matches a sharp intellect with a warm, Christlike character. I can’t wait to read his new book, and I’ll give you a report when I do.
