The New York Times bestselling author of Radical challenges Christians to break free from an American gospel that prioritizes comfort, power, prosperity, politics – and to pursue instead the full beauty of the gospel of Jesus. From his viewpoint in the capital of the United States, Pastor David Platt has reached the startling realization that far too many Christians have traded the biblical gospel that exalts God above everything in this world for a cultural faith centered on American values.
