โImagine that Christianity is about loving God. Imagine that itโs not about the self and its concerns, about โwhatโs in it for me,โ whether that be a blessed afterlife or prosperity in this life. Imagine that loving God is about being attentive to the one in whom we live and move and have our being. Imagine that it is about becoming more and more deeply centered in God. Imagine that it is about loving what God loves. How would that change our lives?โโfrom Convictions
Marcus J. Borg, preeminent theologian and Bible scholar, reflects on his life and how he developed his most bedrock convictionsโand why they matter. The result is a manifesto for all progressive Christians who seek the best path for following Jesus today.
A Manifesto for Progressive Christians
โConveys an overall message that is both simple and urgently needed: Change is a good and natural part of Christian life.โโRead the SpiritโIn every generation there are a handful of writers of whom it can be said, โRead everything they write.โ Marcus Borg is one of these today.โโWalter Wink, author ofThe Human Being
โAn excellent introduction for general readers who stand outside the Christian tradition as well as those interested in considering how faith changes as they mature.โโBooklist
โMarcus Borg is a key force in the emerging โnew paradigmโ of Christian faith.โโWalter Brueggemann, author ofSabbath as Resistance
โOne of those rare books . . . simply written [and] deep enough to inspire serious thought.โโClarion Journal of Spirituality and Justice
โHe writes honestly and clearly, defining as he goes, always educating. He does not shy from laying out controversies among contemporary Christians [but] he closes with wonder.โโPublishers Weekly
