"I won "Most Humble Servant" at the church banquet. It's the centrepiece of my mantelpiece. I dust it daily."
"I've completely forgiven him. I just happen to remember every detail with perfect clarity, including timestamps and witnesses. I've also commissioned a tasteful diorama. For historical accuracy."
"I practice "friendship evangelism," which means I befriend non-Christians with the long-term goal of converting them. If they figure out the friendship has an agenda, I've failed."
"I pray for my enemy every day by name. Specifically, I pray that God would send a swift and obvious consequence to his actions."
Across fifteen chapters — forgiveness, humility, money, enemies, judgement, evangelism, prayer, rest, worship, and more — Christian Paradoxes holds a mirror to the gap between what Christians say they believe and how they actually behave. Every vignette lands because every reader has been there. Most readers have been the narrator.
This is not a book that attacks the church. It is a book the church wrote about itself, by accident, over centuries — and Tjerk Beckstrom has simply assembled the evidence.
Painfully funny. Uncomfortably accurate. Deeply affectionate.
