Stand is a call to really live. To live out your Christian life  standing on
the truth of who God is and who you are in him, standing on the reality
of what hes done. Standing firm in battle. Standing up for others and
being prepared to stand out.

"Unapologetic and defiant - an ancient, urgent call to Christian discipleship." - Pete Greig, 24-7 Prayer

In the steps of Mere Christianity and The Fight, Karl Martin re-tells and
re-frames Gods ancient call to discipleship and witness for a new
generation, keeping Jesus firmly at the centre.

Karl Martins passion for Jesus Christ is infectious. He has built up one of Britains most exciting and innovative churches through prayer, vision, determination and a longing for more people to experience the love of God for themselves. - Nicky Gumbel

The Author: Karl Martin is Senior Minister of Central Jesus at the heart in the city of Edinburgh. He is married to Niki and has 4 daughters who keep him broke, humble and youthful! His interests include curry and sport of all kinds. He loves the Church of Jesus Christ and longs for her to become all that she is called to be  passionate, relevant, creative, different, missional and alive.

"Hes a big-hearted, big-fisted, big picture kind of man, which is another way of saying that hes a leader." - Pete Greig

This is not a book to keep nicely on your bookshelf, this is a book to keep dog-eared by your bed, to dip in and out of again and again and to pass on to others. One of the few Christian books to not only inspire and challenge but also to practically equip you in the way of being an effective disciple of Jesus. It's funny and normal and accessible in its presentation and yet chock-full of the extraordinary and the supernatural - grounded in the Word of God and always pointing towards Jesus. Really the best way to describe this is book is as a 'tool', we are not left simply with a host of grand ideas or philosophical questions or statements but rather we are told beautiful and exciting stories, given solid and eloquent teaching and then, crucially, given ways of practically applying what we've read to our lives, to the the life of our church and our community. In short, read this book. Read it well and then buy it for everyone you know and then just get on with it. In the words of the man himself - "Doing it is doing it, talking about it is talking about it!"
