Book excerpt: The 2014 Christianity Today Book Award Winner (Christianity and Culture) 2014 Outreach Magazine Resource of the Year (Compassion) We want to save the world—and we have a dizzying array of worthy causes to pursue. But passionate enthusiasm can quickly give way to disillusionment, compassion fatigue or empty slacktivism. As we move from awareness to mobilization, we bump up against the complexities of global problems—and liking Facebook pages only goes so far. Veteran activist Tyler Wigg-Stevenson identifies the practical and spiritual pitfalls that threaten much of today's cause-driven Christianity. He casts an alternate vision for doing good based on the liberating truth that only God can save the world. Wigg-Stevenson's own pilgrimage from causes to calling shows how to ground an enduring, kingdom-oriented activism in the stillness of vocation rather than in the anxiety of the world's brokenness. The world is not ours to save. And that's okay. Discover why.

Book excerpt: Ren Silyano, a zoo veterinary assistant, is slowly beginning to recover from a profound personal loss when he comes across an emptied grave and its empty coffin – and is suddenly confronted with an incomprehensible reality. Before he can react, he wakes up at home with no memory of the event other than a half-forgotten “dream” haunting him. He goes to work only to discover he’s “missing” a day. His best friend, the cemetery’s caretaker, can’t help. He’s missing a corpse from a police exhumation and his wife claims her dead twin sister is now “gone”. In the process of trying to find answers, they soon meet someone else who is also searching for someone. With time and events seemingly out of control, difficult choices have to be made. Love, happiness – our very “self” and maybe even immortality may be defined not by our ability to hold onto these misty concepts – but to have any real meaning – that they are Not Ours To Keep.
