Every time I read one of Brian McLaren's books my understanding of my own faith is challenged and i need to reassess what i believe and why.
A New Kind of Christianity is no exception. Brian takes us on a quest of discovery by asking hard questions concerning the bedrock of our faith; how we read and see the bible, our understanding of the person of God, how we perceive Jesus and what we consider to be the gospel.
Brian points out how we've been duped by the violent Greco-roman god 'Theos' and that we need to return to the God of grace revealed in the person of Jesus.
Jesus didn't come to start a new religion but to instigate a peaceable Kingdom and as his followers we are here on this planet to help to see this wonderful dream come true in all its fulness.
