Acerca de esta escucha

Five hundred years after Martin Luther and his Ninety-Five Theses ushered in the Reformation, best-selling author and controversial bishop and teacher John Shelby Spong delivers 12 forward-thinking theses to spark a new reformation to reinvigorate Christianity and ensure its future.

At the beginning of the 16th century, Christianity was in crisis - a state of conflict that gave birth to the Reformation in 1517. Enduring for more than 200 years, Luther's movement was then followed by a "revolutionary time of human knowledge". Yet these advances in our thinking had little impact on Christians' adherence to doctrine - which has led the faith to a critical point once again.

Spong contends that there is mounting pressure among Christians for a radically new kind of Christianity - a faith deeply connected to the human experience instead of outdated dogma. To keep Christianity vital, he urges modern Christians to update their faith in light of these advances in our knowledge, and to challenge the rigid and problematic Church teachings that emerged with the Reformation. There is a disconnect, he argues, between the language of traditional worship and the language of the 21st century. Bridging this divide requires us to rethink and reformulate our basic understanding of God.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Spong's stimulating call for a newly revitalized Christianity will appeal to contemporary Christians who view traditional Christianity as dismayingly outmoded.” (Publishers Weekly Starred Review)

A realistic view of religion and why it’s time for change

Bishop Spong meticulously includes bible quotes and explanations and provides insight on the “literal” meaning that religion today uses as rhetoric and mandates, and the actual meaning of what was most likely meant at the time the Bible was written. He also compares the gospels and inconsistencies found between them. This book was great and in my opinion makes you think about religion in a whole different way. To me, it clearly exposes that while the message of Jesus was meant to unite us, the rhetoric and misinterpretation of religious groups has divided us and ultimately committed the worst crimes in his name. This book will really open your mind, if you are conscious enough to diverge from the 1st century “written in stone” mentality.

Truthfully beautiful

This is by far the most meaningful book I have ever read or listen to! I loved it! I am no biblical scholar, however I live and feel Christianity deeply. This book completely resonated with me, and it seems Shelby Spong could have entered my mind for ideas. If you consider yourself a seeker, this book is for you! A beautifully book written by a beautiful soul!

An Incredible book

A compelling vision for the future of Christianity. I’d recommend it to anyone who struggles with the unbelieveability of supernaturalism.
