Breaking All the Rules

An Ancient Framework for Modern Faith

De: Kristian A. Smith, Reginald W. Sharpe Jr.

Narrado por: Kristian A. Smith

Rule-Keeping theological frameworks are failing us.

In Breaking All The Rules, Kristian A. Smith introduces Greatest Commandment Theology as an ancient framework for modern faith. This book doesn't provide answers for your questions. It provides questions for your answers. The challenge
is to remove the question "What does the Bible say about that?" and replace it with "How does the Greatest Commandment apply here?"

The deconstructionist of our time!

Greatest commandment theology is one of the greatest revelations that was always sitting right in front of us. Kristian is a force that cannot be reckoned with.

More!!!

I was left with an enormous hunger for more!!! The light bulbs that went off in my head and the satisfaction of being able to breathe and to be okay with my thoughts and feelings about my spiritual journey. Thanks you so much.

I can’t un-see it!!!

This book is ground breaking for me. The best way to describe it is “I can’t un-see it”. Now that I’ve seen the truth of the Bible from this stand point this book both pulled me closer to something’s and repelled me from other. It has definitely helped my journey

My New Home...

I do not recall how I happened upon Smith and this movement but I can honestly say, i feel at home. I listen to the podcasts but just recently decided to listen to the audio book. I was not disappointed. In this brief but thorough book, the author gives clarity to his message of Greatest Commandment Theology. Whereas the podcasts offer an introduction, this book is a full entree. I gained a deeper understanding of Smith's theological lense and found myself nodding in agreement with many of his conclusions. There are places I wish he would have pushed the needle further but the fact remains this is a great book to begin one's "theological evolution." This book is destined to change the face of the church and for that I am glad. Thanks Kristian and TFC. Your word is reaching and restoring people you cannot imagine.

Incredible

Best Christian book I’ve read in a decade. Speaks to the current YOUNG upcoming church.

life changing read

In the book, Kristian gave the framework for a now Faith based on loving God, our neighbor and ourselves. It helped me so much reconnect to my faith.

Easy to follow

I typically don't read religious books but this was refreshing & well explained . Very easy to follow, accessible to me who is not a theologian.

Absolutely life altering!

I absolutely loved this book. It is enlightening, smart, concrete and easy to understand. My mind was blown several times throughout and then I found myself taking notes. I love that he includes the actual bible scriptures to provide context and gives recommendations for further study on different topics. I'm about to listen again. I believe this book was created for such a time as this.

Agreed!

I read this in a day because it was easy to move through. This is the one of the very few times I’ve heard this perspective made so clear. I’ve resonated with this for so long yet so many people including close friends thought I was off my rocker for this perspective. I’m grateful that Kristian was able to capture & clearly state how quite a few of us feel understanding this perspective. Definitely a recommended read especially those questioning their Christian faith.

Breaking All The Rules

overall, this book was a good read. that did not satisfy me but answered some questions based on theology but but I did not find that the author or writer had a concrete relationship with Jesus. I saw no examples of his walking by faith. it just appeared to be about religious questions about God, but not from a believer who has been born again of God's Spirit. it appears to please today's logic that is satisfying for our culture today . but believers True believer s worship God in spirit and truth and this means that it is spiritual not logical.
