You’re not denying Jesus. You’re just following Him… at a distance.
And that distance is quietly destroying your faith.
Most Christians don’t walk away from Jesus; they drift. They stay close enough to believe, but far enough to stay comfortable. Over time, faith becomes passive, silent, and powerless.
This book is a wake-up call for the lukewarm Christian.
In (Un)Embarrassed of Jesus, Travis Johnson exposes the danger of cultural Christianity, a faith that avoids risk, stays quiet, and blends into the world. Using Peter’s journey from fear to boldness, this book shows what happens when you stop following Jesus at a distance and start following Him closely.
You will discover how to:
- Break free from passive, comfortable faith
- Overcome fear of people and speak boldly
- Move from silent belief to courageous action
- Stand firm in a post-Christian culture
- Live a real, unapologetic Christian life
This is not about perfection. It’s about bold faith.
If you feel your faith has become routine…
If you’re tired of being a quiet Christian…
If you want a deeper, stronger walk with Jesus…
This book will challenge you to stop blending in and start living with conviction.
Jesus didn’t call you to be safe.
He called you to be unashamed.
