Welcome to the Holy Reads Podcast, where we explore powerful Christian books to deepen your faith and inspire a life of purpose. Hosted by Michael, each episode offers insightful summaries and reflections on life-changing books that challenge, encourage, and equip you to live out your calling in Christ.

In today’s episode, we dive into Radical: Taking Back Your Faith from the American Dream by David Platt. In this thought-provoking book, Platt challenges believers to confront the comfortable, self-centered Christianity of today and embrace a life of radical discipleship. He calls us to live according to Jesus’ teachings—sacrificial, counter-cultural, and focused on God’s mission, rather than personal comfort or material success.

Through compelling examples, Platt highlights the difference between worldly ambition and the gospel’s call to follow Jesus at all costs. From global missions to local discipleship, Platt’s message challenges us to step outside our comfort zones, prioritize God’s kingdom, and commit to making disciples of all nations.

Whether you're ready to take The Radical Experiment or simply want to reflect on how your faith can become more intentional and mission-driven, this episode offers valuable insights into living out a radical, Jesus-centered life.
