Here's a thoughtful, probing exploration of why Christians get stuck in the place of complacency, dryness, and tedium — and how to move on to new levels of spiritual passion! Buchanan shows how the majority of Christians begin their spiritual journey with excitement and enthusiasm — only to get bogged down in a "borderland" — an in-between space beyond the "old life" but short of the abundant, adventurous existence promised by Jesus. Citing Jonah, he examines the problem of "borderland living" — where doubt, disappointment, guilt, and wonderlessness keep people in a quagmire of mediocrity — then offers solutions ... effective ways to get unstuck and move into a bold, unpredictable, exhilarating walk with Christ.
