Rich Mullins once said, 'A faith that moves mountains is a faith that expands horizons. It does not bring us into a smaller world of easy answers but into a larger one where there is room for wonder.' Brian McLaren is an author and pastor who has taken this truth to heart. A New Kind of Christian's conversation between a pastor and his daughter's high school science teacher reveals that wisdom for life's most pressing spiritual questions can come from the most unlikely sources. This stirring fable captures a new spirit of Christianity--where personal, daily interaction with God is more important than institutional church structures, where faith is more about a way of life than a system of belief, where being authentically good is more important than being doctrinally 'right,' and where one's direction is more important than one's present location. McLaren's delightful and sometimes provocative account offers a wise and wondrous approach for revitalizing Christian spiritual life and Christian congregations.
