Publisher's Description
An unstuffy, unintimidating invitation to greater intimacy with God · from the creator of the top-ranked Back Porch Theology podcast · makes theology simple, accessible, and applicable to your daily life· transform your relationship with GodThe most basic definition of theology is words (logos) about God (theos). Conversations, if you will, about the most important thing in life--developing a real, ongoing, vibrant relationship with God Himself. With her signature style and wit, bestselling author and Bible teacher Lisa Harper invites you into this life-giving conversation. She makes theology engaging, practical, and applicable by explaining how academic-sounding concepts--such as imago Dei, atonement, the Trinity, the transcendence and immanence of Christ, and much more--are not rigid theoretical propositions but transformative realities that we get to live out with God and with other people. If you want more joy and peace with God and you feel called to make more of a Jesus-shaped dent in the world around you, then it's time to dive deeper into biblically sound theology. With Lisa as your guide, this is guaranteed to be quite the adventure!

“There’s simply no one like Lisa Harper. In A Jesus-Shaped Life, she bridges the gap between sound doctrine and a flourishing life. She makes theology both accessible and desirable for all, inspiring us to receive the unconditional love of our merciful and gracious Savior. You will laugh, cry, be challenged, and be compelled to lean in more fully to a Jesus-shaped life.”
“Like the Master Storyteller, Lisa Harper knows how to draw you in through stories. She talks about theology in a way anybody can relate to. As you would expect if you’ve heard or read Lisa before, this book is like a conversation. But more than that, it’s an invitation into deeper conversation—about, and especially with, God Himself.”
Dr. Craig S. Keener
“Lisa’s wit and humor are well known throughout the Christian world. Her ability to bring the Bible to life in unique and life-giving ways has always been her trademark. And now she combines those gifts to bring us a very readable and enjoyable work on our core Christian theological beliefs. Everyone should buy this book. Pick it up, grab a cup of coffee, and devour it!”
