February - Everything Must Change

Join us this month for a conversation about Brian McLaren's newest book, "Everything Must Change." We will meet on Tuesday, February 12th at 8pm. We'll gather at the Cafe Brazil at Lovers Lane and 75. Come in and look for those of us with copies of Brian's book on the table! You can find the book here.

From one review: Acclaimed author and Emergent church leader Brian McLaren states, "More and more Christian leaders are beginning to realize that for the millions of young adults who have recently dropped out of church, Christianity is a failed religion. Why? Because it has specialized in dealing with 'spiritual needs' to the exclusion of physical and social needs. It has focused on 'me' and 'my eternal destiny,' but it has failed to address the dominant societal and global realities of their lifetime: systemic injustice, poverty, and dysfunction."

McLaren asks, "Shouldn't a message purporting to be the best news in the world be doing better than this?" What he sets forth in this provocative, unsettling work is a "form of Christian faith that is holistic, integral, balanced, that offers good news for both the living and the dying, that speaks of God's grace at work both in this life and the life to come, both to individuals and to societies and the planet as a whole."

Whether you've read it or not, we hope to see you there for an evening of good conversation.
