What God's Up To on Planet Earth?: A No-Strings-Attached Explanation of the Christian Message

Have you ever wondered Why am I here? Whats gone wrong with the world? What is the answer? How will it all end? What do I have to do to know God? Whats God up to on Planet Earth? offers a no-strings-attached presentation of the Christian message written for those who are seeking answers to questions like these. Mark Keown gives a compelling vision of a loving God whose desire is the restoration of the whole world. The book focuses on the individual person and how he or she fits into this inspiring vision. It is a must-read for those seeking to understand the Christian faith more. Many Christians have summarized their beliefs over the years in written form. But few have done so in as lively and compelling a fashion as Mark Keown. If you thought faith was dull or boring think again--and read this book. If you thought following Jesus was just about God and me discover his plan for the whole universe here! If you believed it was just about fire insurance for a life to come guess again. If the overall storyline of the Bible seems confusing or youre just not very familiar with it at all youll come to grips with that here too and see how it is reflected in popular culture and contrasted in other world religions. Mark is at once personally transparent and scripturally faithful. Long time Christ-followers and those who know nothing about Christianity will alike benefit from this book. -Craig Blomberg Denver Seminary Mark J.
