Editorial Review (from Amazon.com)

A Leadership Network Publication

A New Kind of Christian's conversation between a pastor and his daughter's high school science teacher reveals that wisdom for life's most pressing spiritual questions can come from the most unlikely sources. This stirring fable captures a new spirit of Christianity--where personal, daily interaction with God is more important than institutional church structures, where faith is more about a way of life than a system of belief, where being authentically good is more important than being doctrinally "right," and where one's direction is more important than one's present location. Brian McLaren's delightful account offers a wise and wondrous approach for revitalizing Christian spiritual life and Christian congregations.

Seraphim thinks this book is Excellent.

I can hardly describe this book. In an age when "religion" seems so intertwined with politics, race, social status, etc. reading this was just what I needed. To see my faith in a new light - one not bound by simple labels, but rather, one progressing towards simply following God - is something I never really thought possible.

Read this book - chances are, you might just so happen to see yourself in its journey.
