Download or read book The Idolatry of God written by Peter Rollins and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We must lay down our certainties and honestly admit our doubts to identify with Jesus. Rollins purposely upsets fundamentalist certainty in order to open readers up to a more loving, active manifestation of Christ's love. He explores how the Good News actually involves embracing the idea that we can't be whole, that life is difficult, and that we are in the dark. By joyfully embracing our brokenness, and courageously accepting the difficulties of existence, we truly rob death of its sting and enter into the fullness of life.
