“"The sermons here hit like theological hand grenades--they're explosive, shattering in their honesty, destroying platitudes we've long had about race, class, and sexual identity. You can't help but be changed by them because Nibs speaks from personal experience as well as keen pastoral insight. It's both a confession and a summon to faith in a difficult age." --John Blake, author of Children of the Movement, religion writer for CNN.com "For 50 years, Nibs Stroupe has been that rarest of voices in America--an idealist relentlessly confronting not just those with whom he disagrees but challenging himself and all believers in good to examine our own parts in society's systems of inequality and injustice. His sermons are clarion calls for all who seek a path toward a better America.”
