What if the most consistent thread in the Bible isn't God's favor for the righteous insider, but His peculiar, persistent pursuit of the one who is out__?__

In this groundbreaking and deeply comforting work, The Sacred Anomaly invites you on a radical re-reading of the biblical narrative. This is not a theology from the center-from the established, the powerful, or the orthodox. It is a theology from the edges, revealing a God whose heart beats for the outsider, the outcast, and the alien.

Journey from Genesis to Revelation and discover:

  • The "Outsider God" whose very nature is one of holy otherness and who became the ultimate outsider on the Cross.
  • The shocking stories of proto-anomalies like Cain and Hagar, where God's grace shines on the cursed and the forgotten.
  • How the "Fellowship of the Bizarre"-the scandalous social strategy of Jesus-redefines community around the wrong people from the wrong places.
  • A profound vision for the Church as a "Sanctuary for the Spiritually Homeless," making room for the doubter, the deconstructor, and the heretic in the pew.
  • The breathtaking hope of the New Creation as the Homeland of the Alien, where every gate is forever open and every scarred identity is glorified.

The Sacred Anomaly is a paradigm-shifting work of theological recovery. It is essential reading for anyone who has ever felt like an outsider, for those ministering on the margins, and for every believer ready to trade a sanitized, powerful god for the mysterious, subversive, and beautiful God of the Bible-the God of the Off-Script.
