I enjoyed reading this book for the different perspective, but it is let down by its ungenerous attitude towards religion. ('Religion' in this case is Christianity.) The book reads more like the frustrated monologue of someone who is halfway through resolving an issue and needs to talk it through. The one thing I took away was the concept of heaven being an 'opt out' rather than an 'opt in'. At least Spencer Burke is upfront with his pantheism. More liberal than McLaren's excellent 'Generous Orthodoxy' and, ironically, less forgiving. ( ) sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica
Distinguishing between religion and spirituality, Burke offers what he calls a new way of looking at God, one centered on the idea of grace. He emphasizes a God who is looking to save the world, not a God who seems more intent on condemning certain practices . . . . For Burke, God is to be questioned, not simply obeyed. His challenging thesis will appeal to many people today who have given up on organized religion but still seek some connection to spirituality. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
