Somehow OUR (you are a part of this) blog was selected with other large bloggers (?–huh) to be a part of a blog tour for THE FINE LINE, a book that is a must read for anyone who walks THE FINE LINE of Christ and Culture.

I will be doing a podcast with the author, Kary Oberbrunner on December 2nd, a few days before the book launches. Can’t wait to dig deeper and mess with Kary a bit. Trust me, no one gets off easy on a podcast with me. Don’t miss it!

So…Why am I excited about this book? Because I grew up in a church environment that withdrew fully from culture to the extreme (not Amish extreme, but extreme). Even STEVE GREEN and the group ACCAPELLA was a “sin.” No, seriously… and yes…the group Accapella was 100% accapella music. I wouldn’t lie to you.

I then found churches of GRACE that seemed to go the other way with culture. Amazing grace took on a new STRUGGLE for me. I was greatly confused and still have issues when I walk THE FINE LINE of “being in the world, but not of it!” How about you?

Kary does an amazing job of summarizing this issue that is so FUZZY to many in this day and age of confusion. So…you can pre-order and check out the book HERE (sample chapter included).

Check out the trailer at the end…amazing video work, and then take a moment to listen to Kary’s heart on this issue. Great stuff!
