Dave Rich og Jim Osman God Doesn't Try

In God Doesn't Try, Jim Osman and Dave Rich offer a thought-provoking study of the sovereignty of God applied to soteriology, ecclesiology, and eschatology. This book challenges Christians to think of God according to His self-revelation as the all-powerful, all-knowing God Who accomplishes His will without attempting or experimenting. Whether in the minutia of our individual lives, the ministry of His blood-bought church, or His plan for His creation, God's purposes are always accomplished. He cannot fail. He will not falter. He does not abandon His work because He lacks resources or might. God Doesn't Try is a compelling explanation of God's benevolent sovereignty that will challenge the reader to think and speak biblically about the nature of salvation, the structure of the church, and the fulfillment of God's ultimate purposes for creation. In all His works, God doesn't try. Along with an introduction, the book is divided into three theological sections: soteriology, ecclesiology, and eschatology.
