Normal? Whos normal?
Not you, thats for sure! No one youve ever met, either. None of us are normal according to Gods definition, and the closer we get to each other, the plainer that becomes. Yet for all our quirks, sins, and jagged edges, we need each other. Community is more than just a wordit is one of our most fundamental requirements. So how do flawed, abnormal people such as ourselves master the forces that can drive us apart and come together in the life-changing relationships God designed us for?

Youll get a thought-provoking look at Gods heart, at others, and at yourself. Even better, youll gain wisdom and tools for drawing closer to others in powerful, impactful ways. With humor, insight, and a gift for storytelling, Ortberg shows how community pays tremendous dividends in happiness, health, support, and growth. Its where all of us weird, unwieldy people encounter Gods love in tangible ways and discover the transforming power of being loved, accepted, and valued just the way we are.
