The time is ripe to reexamine what we've always been told about Christianity. In the face of a chaotic and cruel world, Christianity offers the possibility of a better way. But to find it, we've got to be willing to break free from what we've always heard about Christianity. Ware, a seminary graduate with a Master of Divinity degree, draws on years of study to challenge us to reconsider many of the basic Christian beliefs we've always heard are correct. He prods us to make huge leaps in how we see both Christianity and the world around us. In a clear and readable style, he leads us to beliefs that are simple, yet they make so much sense for the real world in which we live. Unafraid to challenge even the biggest names in Christianity both today and in the past, Ware offers a vision that gives a sense of possibility, both in the world and in our individual lives.The result of a lifetime of study and a lifetime of searching, and also the result of a realistic view of the ups and downs of life, this book is for those who want more than a devotional guide and more than a pep talk. It's for those who are open to something that challenges the deepest assumptions of the Christianity we've always heard. It's for those who are struggling with the deepest questions of life and searching for a way to live in the world. Most of all, it's for people who suspect there must be more to Christianity than what they've heard in church.
