Pastor and author James Emery White leads his church and his life with a singular mission: to turn spiritual explorers into fully devoted followers of Christ. The obvious first step in this process is for someone to cross the line of faith - to say, "I believe." That was the heart behind his book Christianity for People Who Aren't Christians.

Jesus didn't quote The Southern Baptist Convention. He proclaimed the Word of God when Satan came against Him. Jesus fought Satan's words with the Word of God, and it worked.
