About this listen

Read by the authors.

Pastor Jamin Goggin and theology professor Kyle Strobel invite you on a journey to uncover Jesus’ seemingly contradictory way to power: weakness.

Why do so many rock-star pastors implode under the spotlight? Why do modern-day churches become so entangled in growing their brand that they lose sight of their true purpose? Because, according to Jamin Goggin and Kyle Strobel, Christians have succumbed to the temptations of power and forgotten Jesus’ seemingly contradictory path to power - first giving it up.

In The Way of the Dragon or the Way of the Lamb, Goggin and Strobel paint a richly biblical vision of power through weakness. They invite you to join them on an adventure around the world, seeking out great sages of the faith with uncommon wisdom to offer those traveling the path of Christian life. As you eavesdrop on the authors’ conversations with people such as J. I. Packer, Dallas Willard, Marva Dawn, John Perkins, James Houston, and Eugene Peterson, you will begin to piece together the new-old reality of following Jesus today. In the end, The Way of the Dragon or the Way of the Lamb offers a compelling vision of the way of Jesus that will challenge both individual believers and the church as a whole.

a must read

This book is wonderfully written and adds the wisdom of excellent older popular Christians. I would recommend this to any and all followers especially those who see the things wrong with our "church" system and themselves like me.

A powerful reminder of where strength and power come from

My pride would say I already knew everything written in this book. In a way I did. But it opened my eyes to the pride and desire for power and how often I loathe the weakness in which true power comes. My weakness God’s strength and it can’t be wielded like a magic trick. In humility comes true power from God. In humility come true service. In humility and my weakness God’s glory shines brightest. May we never forget this truth.

Shaping the heart of the Christian in this day and age

Which knowing who the dragon in the lamb are is ever more difficult this book cut through all of the chaos and confusion. This book simultaneously increases the sharpness of art discretion, serpent all the wild, soft and opening our heart to the way of Christ. I was both humble and encouraged reading this book.
