Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

If you're brave enough to take an honest look at the issues facing the culture--controlled church--and the issues in your own life--read on.Do you ever look at how the Christian faith is being lived out in the new millennium and wonder if we're not doing what we're supposed to be doing? That we still haven't quite 'gotten it'? That we've missed the point regarding many important issues?It's understandable if we've relied on what we've been told to believe or what's widely accepted by the Christian community. But if we truly turned a constructive, critical eye toward our beliefs and vigorously questioned them and their origins, where would we find ourselves?Best-selling authors Brian McLaren and Tony Campolo invite you to do just that. Join them on an adventure--one that's about uncovering and naming faulty conclusions, suppositions, and assumptions about the Christian faith. In Adventures in Missing the Point, the authors take turns addressing how we've missed the point on crucial topics such as: Salvation, The Bible, Being Postmodern, Worship, Homosexuality, Truth, and many more...

Synopsis:

Brian D. McLaren and Tony Campolo invite us to join in the adventure of reexamining our past and rethinking our future. There is a stirring among churchgoers. Many are looking at how the Christian faith is being played out, wondering if, somehow, we're missing the point. What if there is more to our faith than just getting our souls into heaven? What if there is a power in the gospel that, due to our culture and church convention, has been locked up? If we were toexamine our widely accepted Christian beliefs and their origins, would we end up in the same place we are now or would we move in a new direction?

Synopsis:

There is a stirring among churchgoers. Many are looking at how the Christian faith is being played out, wondering if somehow we're missing the point. What if there is more to our faith than just getting our souls into heaven? What if there is a power in the gospel that's been kept under lock and key because of our culture-controlled church? If we placed our beliefs and their origins under the microscope, what would we see?

Synopsis:

Bestselling authors McLaren and Campolo offer a skeptical and sympathetic assessment of the culture-controlled church--and each other's opinions--as they uncover faulty assumptions about the Christian faith. Join the adventure with a bold, honest look at salvation, postmodernism, worship, church leadership, and more to stretch your thinking and discover what the future holds.
