I was recently handed the first shipped copy of Death by Love, the newest book by Dr. Gerry Breshears and myself. We are both very excited about this book that is for sale everywhere starting September 30.

Unlike Vintage Jesus, it does not have comedy and is pure, unadulterated, intense, Jesus-centered, sin-confronting, raw, and real gospel theology. The look by the guys at Portland Studios is unreal and unparalleled. I do think, without shameless self-promoting, that it is a timely book with essential truth in a creative format. I explain the book in greater detail in this video:

Mark Driscoll's new book, Death By Love, is shipping now and will be available everywhere at the end of September.

Jesus is King and Lord over the whole world. One of the most powerful illustrations of this comes from the 19th chapter of Revelation. For our first Death by Love Contest we are inviting everyone to draw a picture of Jesus from the description in Revelation 19. You can watch this video clip for inspiration.

Instructions

1. "Draw an awesome picture of Jesus from Rev 19." From Andy Cimbala (State College, PA)
2. Post it to the Death by Love Facebook group picture section. (Below the video)
3. The top three will get a book, and then we'll randomly draw at least two submissions for free copies of Death by Love.

Revelation 19:11-16

"Then I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse! The one sitting on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he judges and makes war. His eyes are like a flame of fire, and on his head are many diadems, and he has a name written that no one knows but himself. He is clothed in a robe dipped in blood, and the name by which he is called is The Word of God. And the armies of heaven, arrayed in fine linen, white and pure, were following him on white horses. From his mouth comes a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations, and he will rule them with a rod of iron. He will tread the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God the Almighty. On his robe and on his thigh he has a name written, King of kings and Lord of lords." Revelation 19:11-16
