Description The time is ripe for a new Christian reformation--a profound transformation of theological substance, not just liturgical style.
Jesus never intended to create a new religion of rites, creeds, and dogma that offered an eternal reward in heaven.
Instead he announced the subversive arrival of the kingdom of God--a social and economic revolution of the heart based on a lifestyle of radical love, lavish generosity, extravagant forgiveness, inclusive hospitality, compassionate action, selfless service, a passion for justice, creative nonviolence, and simple living.
He invited his followers to transform their lives and change the world.
A postmodern Christianity will call people to engage in the Jesus revolution--a conspiracy of love that rises up against the unjust systems of the world through everyday acts of kindness, compassion, and resistance.
An Unorthodox Faith provides a framework for a faithful life based on the Way of Jesus--a way of living authentically and humanely for the sake of others.
It offers countless people--those who remain in the church, those who have left, and those who have never ventured near--with a life of faith that is meaningful, intelligent, and passionate.
Kurt Struckmeyer is a writer, theologian, and founder of the Mustard Seed School of Theology.
He is the author of A Conspiracy of Love (2016).
