“He’s
done it again. The Holy Wild is a fabulous book.” Beth
Moore
Are you ready for Life in the Holy Wild?
This
fall we’ll rally around Mark Buchanan’s book, “The
Holy Wild.” Events include a 10-week sermon
series, 6-week Agape Bible studies, and
a full day of events on November 14, including
an All-Church Celebration Service, a teaching
by Mark Buchanan LIVE, and a book discussion with
the author in the afternoon.
Buchanan’s book is a book about the character of the God of rest and risk. “It is about leaning all the way into Him, learning to put our entire weight in who He is and what He does. And it’s about discovering life as God always meant it to be … He wants to take you on the ride of your life, into the Holy Wild.” (preface, p. 12)
Mark Buchanan has sent a short video message to Woodbury Lutheran about the "Life in the Holy Wild" series. Watch it here (It is 33 MB in size so you will need a fast Internet connection.).
