The Promise of Not-Knowing

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“And what if the answer to our heritage of culture wars—which have so effectively colonized and policed the sacred—were to bracket our drive for victory, to open the chance for a new spirit, a new spirituality? And what if the New Testament itself were released from the old cultural inheritance to incite this new exodus from war, and this on the merest promise of spiritual renewal? Caution, reader: With this new New Testament reading in hand you may just find yourself bereft of weapons, without the identity forged by culture wars, and instead nothing but newly awake and alive in ways you just could not have known before. This book is a risky masterpiece.”
