Is salvation a choice or is it pre-determined? Is following Jesus easy? Is it comfortable?
In David Platt’s book Radical the author challenges his readers to consider that people have manipulated the gospel of Christ to fit their culture.
In the first chapter of Radical, David Platt shows us what Christ really told His disciples of following Him. He shows us a story at the end of Luke 9. I encourage you to read it. He basically maps out what Jesus told his followers they must do to follow him. None of what he asked them was comfortable. As Christians we have been called to follow Jesus. no where in the bible does it say that following him is easy or comfortable. David Platt does an excellent job of mapping this out. Through his experiences in foreign lands he reveals what true Christianity is all about.

This sounds interesting. I enjoy anything that talks about the scripture in Acts that says the "early church was devoted to the teaching of the Apostles..."
