If You Find Jesus, Bury Him!: Reforming Biblical Spirituality
No Customer Reviews
This book offers relief for Christians chafing under traditional Christianity's narrow view of Jesus with its opposition to scientific theories and progressive social movements. It shows why Christians who doubt the tenets of traditional Christianity don't have to abandon their faith. Instead, they can take the Bible seriously without having to take it literally and in the process reform Christian spirituality. First, the book exposes the major tenets undergirding traditional Christianity's biblical literalism and shows how critical scholarship undermined each of them. Next, biblical literalism is compared with other approaches to understanding the Bible that take the Bible seriously but do not read it literally. Finally, the book lays out a new way of shaping biblical spirituality that looks for the spirit of Jesus in the Bible without looking for simple answers. Colorfully illustrated with original art created by Gentleman's Game (http://www.gentlemans-game.com).
