Summary of Brant Hansen's Blessed Are the Misfits

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 When Jesus talked about the kingdom of God, he listed the types of people who should be happy because it is what it is: spiritually bankrupt, grieving, humble, and desperately seeking justice in the world. #2 I was a Christian on campus, but I didn’t feel anything. I didn’t experience God’s presence, and I was beginning to believe He had abandoned me. Then I met a guy named Kurt who was excited about his faith. He told me I needed the Holy Spirit to take over my heart. I was scared, but I was willing to visit his group out of loneliness. #3 I was raised in a church-based family, and I was always aware of my laziness and selfishness. I wanted God, but I didn’t feel Him. I was extremely skeptical of religion, and I didn’t understand people who were religious.
