Todays postmodern world is dominated by fear and a desperate search for wisdom and spirituality. How should the church respond to the opportunities this presents? As disciples of the Wakeful One, how do we develop a perceptive, discerning faith whose foundations are love and truth, not fear? In Putting on the Wakeful One, Shaun Lambert presents the Jesus of Mark’s Gospel as Sage, Seer and Storyteller. Going right to the heart of what it means to be a disciple, he discusses key transformational practices that enable us to put on the attributes of Jesus so that we can become wakeful and watchful followers. The church of the twenty-first century desperately needs to develop its ability to listen and perceive, and to mature what Shaun calls the prophetic imagination. Through the cultivation of watchfulness, we can learn to read the signs of the times and bring the hope of the kingdom of God to a needy and fearful world.
