About this listen

Break free from the norm to lead a radically abnormal (and endlessly more fulfilling) life.

In our over busy, unprincipled, oversexed world; lust, debt, guilt, and shame are far more common than a healthy relationship to time, money, and relationships. Simply put, normal isn't working.

In WEIRD, bestselling author of Winning the War in Your Mind Craig Groeschel unpacks a Christ-centered philosophy that will help you know how to:

  • Use your time wisely.
  • Put money in a godly perspective.
  • Have healthy relationships.
  • Understand sex as God intended it.
  • Center our values around Jesus.

If we follow Christ, we're not supposed to be like everyone else. We’re supposed to be a little bit…well, weird. The whole point of Christianity is to become more like Jesus and less of who we are when left to our own devices and desires—to become less like the rest of the world, less normal.

Written for me

this book spoke straight to my heart. I listened to the whole book in one sitting. I get side eye from strangers and friends and family alike often because of the size of our family (we have 7 children) and homeschooling and soon to move across the country to homestead. But it was all God lead. He lead us to live a weird life. This book really helped to remind me to keep pushing forward. His opinions are the only ones that count.

Weird

Craig sticks to his guns and has meaningful messages, but there are some parts of that message I don't much approve of. About the last two hours pretty much turned me off to the whole thing. Before that, there's a powerful message, after that his extreme ideals come to full view.

Become weird, as normal isn't working

Good morning everybody. This was my first ever Christian based teaching book. I started the book in October of 2015. It's a total of 17 chapters in total.
Craig hits home to what God wants us to act in his image. Through his life lessons and flaws, it can be reflected on in our lives too.
The writer hits on everything that is wrong in trying to live a normal life, which isn't primarily focused on God.
I recently have started to take strides in my life. Before going back to church, actually comprehending the bible and acting out the lessons from Jesus and Craig, I didn't realize that I was a luke warm Christian to say the least.
The bible, which is God's word, thoughts, and actions is where you will start to change from a luke warm to a full time Christian.
I really do recommend this audio book, as Craig does a great job in what typically holds us back from a great relationship with Jesus and how to stop being normal and become weird.
It was helpful to me, to take notes and strive to change things in my life. I hope with God's word in the bible and tho book that like me, it will start to change you from within and allow you to become who God intended you to be in his image not the world.

Brian,

I want to be weird!

Very good book. The main message could have been more effectively told in half the pages, however, I was engaged all the way.

Very enlighting. enjoyed it very much.

I enjoyed this book very much. it was very enlighting. anyone who feels they are a Christian and close to God should read this book. the author sheds a lot of light on what you think and what your true relationship with God might really be. you may want to take a closer look into your heart and see how God sees you. a book that really makes you think about who you are and what you are doing, being as a christian. great read.

another winner

I don't know how Pastor Groeshel does it, but he packs so much into his teachings. Very worthwhile as reminders believers need. So much more can be said , but I'll just say, there's a lot of info here that bears reading and as usual for Pastor Craig, his books are down to earth, readable, applicable.
