Mud and Spittle
"
Pagan
Christianity
" is a clear and concise account of what happened to the
church
and explains much of why and how the institutional church has been conformed to this world. This eye opening book is a must for anyone who is tired of seeing and understanding the church through darkened glass and desires a clear picture of what church should be.
Lots of new insight
The material covered in this book isn't even thought about much by most
church
-going people. It challenges every aspect of the way we do "church." Long over due and thought provoking, to say the least.
5 stars +++
I've almost finished this book and it came at a great time in my life, when questioning so many things about traditional
church
practices
. It reveals all the
roots
of things we do in church and take as sacred and gospel. Most everyone would be surprised at how much we take as sacred did not start out as anything more than man's opinion, conforming to the current culture, or from man's ego. I already had chosen not to return to a traditional church, now I just don't think I can. I would be realizing how much of it is just bunk and does not produce an abundant life, but a life tied down to a building, a person (pastor), and a small group of people who all think they are right and their church is the only one that God is speaking to and that has the answer.
Can't wait to start Reimagining Church
