Product Description

Many of us make great efforts to ACT like a "Christian," but how many of us actually realize what it means to BE one? Too many times we see faith as an external behavior modification program. If we just stop [fill in the blank], then we ll be good Christians. Instead, we need to see faith and our witness to those around us stemming from an internal heart transformation, living from the inside out and not the outside in. In Stop Acting Like a Christian, Just Be One, Christine Caine shows how allowing God to change us from the core of our being gives us freedom to stop trying to ACT like a Christian and to just actively BE a Christian. Learn how allowing the Holy Spirit to do His work in us gives us the power to BE witnesses, not to do witnessing. This empowering book will make readers laugh and challenge them about what truly Being a Christian is all about.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beyond the surface: strengthen your core!, October 3, 2007
The only reason that I only gave Christine's other book (A Life Unleashed) a mere 4-star review is because I like this one better! This one goes deeper - to the very core of the issue. You could read A Life Unleashed and still be dissatisfied with your life and your relationship with God because any change motivated by the book could remain at a surface level.

Stop Acting Like A Christian, Just Be One cuts away all the junk of acting like you think you're supposed to act and exposes a (sometimes) malnourished, sidelined relationship with God. Christine starts by leading you through 'the basics', intended to strengthen your 'core'. This is not glamorous or spectacular, but it's the only way to maintain both your sanity and your Christianity long-term!

Only after going over these basics do we get to the Great Commandment - telling people about our relationship with God (i.e. evangelism). This book actually got me more excited about evangelism than any 'how to' evangelism book because it comes as a natural overflow, not as an obligation that I have to perform.

The second half of the book is a devotional guide - 31 days. Let me be honest - I usually skip over devotional guides cos I don't like them. Even if you're like me, read it - the stories are GREAT! But more importantly, this guide is not asking the obvious questions expecting the obvious answers - the questions actually make you think, and sometimes you can't come up with an answer.

I love this book - it encourages you but challenges you (in a way that only Christine can get away with!). I'd recommend it to anyone, no matter where they're at in their Christian journey.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome!, August 28, 2007
By James T., Barton "Jimbo" (Cadillac, Michigan) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I really liked the book. It gets right to the point of being a Christian and not a Sunday only Christian, but an everyday Christian!

I would highly recommend this book to anyone that is searching.

It speaks to the core of your spirit and how it needs feeding.
