Is it possible to have a strong Christian identity, while remaining generous towards other faiths?
Brian McLaren is a bestselling author, internationally acclaimed speaker and spiritual leader in the emerging church movement. Named one of Time Magazine's 25 most influential Evangelical Christians, McLaren was a pastor for over 20 years. He is a frequent guest on radio and television programmes, and an in-demand blogger on faith and public policy.
The thing I love about Brian is that he's kind and intelligent and
funny and easy to talk to and in no time you're deep into
conversation until it hits you: this man has a very, very radical
message. He actually believes that Jesus and his followers can
change the world. This book is no exception - he starts with a joke
but quickly you realize just how serious he is about doing what
Jesus teaches us to do. Helpful, timely, and really, really
inspiring.

An extraordinary book: a thought-provoking introduction to one of
the biggest challenges confronting the church in our globalised
world, and a profoundly biblical and brave beginning to a
Christ-centred cultural revolution.
*Rev Steve Chalke MBE, founder of Oasis Global & Stop The
Traffik*
Brian McLaren is a genius in provoking - in a constructive way. You
won't see relations among religions in the same way after you read
this book.
*Miroslav Volf, Professor of Theology, Yale University*
I think Brian McLaren is a spiritual genius! Not only does he have
the courage to say what must and can be said, but he says it with a
deep knowledge of both Scriptures and Tradition, and then says it
very well besides - in ways that both the ordinary layperson and
the scholar can respect and understand. You can't get any better
than that, which is why I call him a genius!
*Richard Rohr, O.F.M, Center for Action and Contemplation*
In its relationship to those who believe differently, Christian
formation all too often takes shape with hostile reaction, or
collapses into some washed out common denominator. Brian helps us
recover, and explore a vital and exciting alternative. Of how
learning from "others" of all persuasions, is possible and
intrinsic to vibrant Christian identity.
