Crossing Boundaries, Redefining Faith

Foreword

(wrote the foreword)

Editing Jesus

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“In Editing Jesus, Rick Lawrence masterfully dissects the current challenges and discrepancies within American Christianity, urging a return to the authentic teachings and example of Jesus Christ. It aligns with all the contemporary research showing that genuine, relational engagement is not only the essence of Jesus' ministry but also the pathway forward for revitalizing the church. This is essential reading for anyone concerned with the future of Christian ministry and the restoration of its foundation upon unedited, relational principles. Its call to action is both timely and necessary, offering a blueprint for reconnecting the church with its mission and with the younger generations increasingly alienated by its current iterations.”

The Logic of Intersubjectivity

Philosophy

“Brian McLaren is an enormously influential and important figure in modern religion. His collective work and theology deserve the kind of close attention that Dr. Slade provides in The Logic of Intersubjectivity. Scholars and practitioners alike will find much here that not only informs them about McLaren, but also outlines a framework for how others might approach theology in the same way.”
