Book one in "The Rule of the Referees" series. An allegory with a vital message for the church today. Is the church fulfilling the mission to which God has called us? Are we simply resting from past labors and battles and assuming the world around us will get a clue without us? Are we really being the salt and light of the world? What would happen to those around us if we Christians were to take ourselves out of the picture? What if we just took a rest and let the world run itself? Chip finds out what happens when a group of referees decide to sit it out from the game. Complete with Bible study and discussion questions, this little book makes a great individual or group study.
