In this book, Pastor Jamin Goggin and theology professor Kyle Strobel
invite readers on a journey to uncover Jesus’ seemingly contradictory way
to power: weakness.
Why do so many rock-star pastors implode under the spotlight? Why do
modern-day churches become so entangled in growing their brand that they
lose sight of their true purpose? Because, according to Jamin Goggin and
Kyle Strobel, Christians have succumbed to the temptations of power and
forgotten Jesus’ seemingly contradictory path to power—first giving it up.
In The Way of the Dragon or the Way of the Lamb, Goggin and Strobel paint a
richly biblical vision of power through weakness and offers a compelling
vision of the way of Jesus that will challenge both individual believers
and the church as a whole.
Our prayer and hope is that churches in Arizona would be full of leaders
and pastors who are committed to the Jesus-way of power and that pastors
would recognize where the idols of power and prestige have gotten a
foothold into our affections for Christ and leadership decisions so that we
might turn toward embracing weakness.
