Produktbeschreibung
"With crisply prophetic joy, Meyers calls seekers and believers alike to leave belief about God behind in favor of becoming imitators of Jesus." - Diana Butler Bass, author of A People's History of Christianity Robin Meyers, a rising star of liberal Christianity, restores the true mission of the faith that captures the heart of Jesus's concern for people over "right belief." Saving Jesus from the Churchwill resonate deeply with those who enjoy the works of John Shelby Spong, Marcus Borg, and John Dominic Crossan. "In a progressive rather than negatively critical mode, in strong contrast to much of Far Right Protestantism, pastor/NPR commentator Meyers suggests with typical elegance that a recovery of true Christianity emphasizes compassion over condemnation, blessing over sin, and equity over individual prosperity. Highly recommended." - Library Journal (starred review) "Scholarly, pastoral, prophetic, and eloquent. The invitation to follow Jesus instead of worshiping Christ could not come at a more important time, or be issued by a more credible source." -Desmond Tutu "Robin Meyers emerges in Saving Jesus from the Churchas a national voice for a new Christianity. He is a well read scholar and a superb communicator. He writes with a refreshing honesty and a disarming authority. This book is a treat." -John Shelby Spong, author of Rescuing the Bible from Fundamentalism "Meyers' insightful and provocative critique of contemporary Christianity will stimulate energetic theologizing: deconstruction, reconstruction, or impassioned defense of the inherited tradition. Thank you, Robin, for convening this urgently needed conversation." - Dr. James A. Forbes, Jr., president and founder of The Healing of the Nations Foundation
