Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Christian author and George MacDonald biographer shares an enlightening meditation on the need for sacrifice in contemporary Christianity. Michael Phillips began writing A Sacrifice of Obedience in 2002, more than a decade before it was published. As the world moved further into the twenty-first century, the message of his book took on a more profound urgency. Christians everywhere—including Phillips himself—seem resistant the imperatives of sacrifice and obedience. Yet they remain the bull’s eye of the Christian faith. Now, after revisiting and expanding on his original manuscript, Phillips shares his candid and perceptive thoughts on the difficult yet deeply rewarding life all Christians are called to live.
