Credulous

Christian Living

“If death turns us into theologians, then Andrea started in the delivery room cradling her stillborn child. With devastating grief, raging honesty, and fierce vulnerability, she invites us into her memoir of struggle. Believing that God enters life as it is rather than how it is supposed to be, Andrea reminds us of a gospel that forsakes the happy ending for something far more authentic and ultimately Christian: the holy mess of becoming fully human.”

The Samaritan’s Friend

Fiction

“With each misappropriation—whitening his skin, militarizing his ministry, ignoring his bias for the poor, reducing his gospel to demagoguery—Christ is further estranged from his own story. Using accessible language and narrative flare, Jim summons the reader, one retelling after another, to reclaim the biblical Jesus. As misinformation masquerades as truth, the invitation for an authentic and intimate relationship with Jesus couldn’t be timelier.”
