Bart Campolo
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“What a practical and encouraging book, especially for those of us who feel deeply but are not always so confident in our understanding of global issues. Armed with all the experience, wisdom, and inside information most of us lack, the authors make a great case for what I always hoped and suspected to be true: All we lack to end hunger are the moral conviction and the political will to do so, and generating that conviction and will is work we can all do, from wherever we stand, right now.”

“How to Human is a true gift to anyone wise enough to take in the goodness poured out on these pages.”
Christian Living
“Many Christian writers bounce from theme to theme, looking for one that will generate big sales, and so their work never ventures far from the surface. Scott Bessenecker is not one of them. In both his life and his writing, he keeps pursuing the same question: What does it mean to follow Jesus in a broken world full of needy people? His answers keep going deeper and deeper . . . and farther and farther away from the material values and power politics that have come to dominate the evangelical community in North America. I don't know how many books he'll sell this time, but then, I don't know how many books his Teacher would be selling these days either. What I do know is that, in the right hands, this is the kind of book that can make someone dangerous to the status quo.”
“Scott Bessenecker captures the joyful energy of all these young adults who are setting aside comfort and privilege in favor of meaning and impact, and places their radical commitment to loving the poor in the context of the church's historic commitment to positively transforming the world. If you haven't yet encountered the new friars, don't miss this chance to visit the cutting edge of the kingdom of God.”
