Unbalanced: Searching for Truth Between Religion and Culture (and Really Good Mexican Food) (Unabridged‪)‬

We live in a world of extreme polarization. We are constantly bombarded with opinions and arguments. As a result, church culture can become segregated from the rest of the world.

But Jesus walked on both sides of the dividing line. He spoke with religious people, and he ate with town rejects. What if God's truth is somewhere between the division?

Unbalanced takes a close look at what we've separated over, what the church has gotten right and wrong, and where Jesus stands in the middle of it all.
