Tangible: Making God Known Through Deeds of Mercy and Words of Truth - Softcover

Chris Sicks serves as pastor of mercy at Alexandria Presbyterian Church in Virginia. Formerly an atheist who rejected the very existence of God, Chris has worked to make God's love tangible to homeless men, addicts, and needy children in Washington, DC. A graduate of Reformed Theological Seminary and a member of the Christian Community Development Association and Evangelicals for Social Action, Chris often teaches on mercy ministry principles and refugee resettlement.

Hurting people are all around you. Some endure pain or poverty; others are oppressed or alone. In the midst of their suffering, they long to know whether God cares or if He exists at all.

If you tell hurting people about God s love but don t address their pain, they might not believe or even listen to you. However, when you meet their needs with compassion, they begin to learn about the God who is called Rescuer and Savior. Your deeds make your words credible and make God's love tangible.

This is the apologetics of mercy.

In Tangible, author and Pastor Chris Sicks speaks from his heart and his years of reaching out to others. Through practical resources, biblical examples, and vignettes about real people, this book will equip you to introduce hurting people to God through intentional deeds of kindness.

When you enter the world of the suffering with real help, you will reflect the love of Christ the most tangible proof of God s existence.
