Product Description

Product Description
This is an ideal follow-on book from the author's highly successful evangelistic book "Turning Points". It represents a call to Christians to live according to the faith they profess. At the end of each chapter there are discussion questions to stimulate conversation and further thought. We should be different from the world around us - Christian distinctives should set us apart in how we live, think, act and speak. Targetting difficult but crucial areas such as our attitude to money and possessions, sexuality, contentment, relativism and service, this is holiness in the tradition of J.C. Ryle for the contemporary generation. Roberts helps us to consider how we are to respond biblically to the temptations and pitfalls surrounding us - giving what we cannot keep to gain what we cannot lose. Will you take up the challenge? Will you dare to be different?

4.0 out of 5 stars Christianity put into perspective, 12 May 2003
By A Customer
This book translates the important messages of the bible into modern day terms and assosciates them with today's society, and our own personal lives. A brilliant help for anyone who has recently become a Christian and wants to know how to live, but also essential for those who claim to be Christians but need to take another look at the way they are living! Challenging us in every aspect of our lives, this book tells it how it is and does not overlook the more uncomfortable aspects of being a Christian...

4.0 out of 5 stars "Daring to be different in an indifferent world", 1 Jan 2008
By L. Davidson (Belfast, N.Ireland) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
I found "Distinctives" to be a useful book with regards to demonstrating how Christians should differentiate themselves from non-believers in today's world in terms of how to live,think, act and speak. The author explores a wide range of topics and provides good advice as to how Christians should deal with issues like materialism,individualism ,sex and relativism and how they should find contentment in a world whose values are increasingly against those of Christianity,without compromising their principles. "Distinctives" may be easy to read but it is also thought provoking and the author makes makes it quite clear that an authentic Christian lifestyle is a difficult one to pursue in the 21st Century.

4.0 out of 5 stars Challenging and informative, 9 Nov 2001
By A Customer
This book, aimed primarily at Christians, is extremely concise and easy to read. As its title suggests, it focuses on helping the reader to lead a "Distinctive" Christian life in the context of the 21st Century. I thoroughly recommend it to anyone looking for practical help in living out their faith day by day.
