Here is a book of deep wisdom from a prophetic rabbi who has for fifty years worked to promote a progressive spirit of renewal that connects Jews, Christians, and people of other faiths.

~~~ Sunday, July 18, 4 PM Subversive Jesus by Craig Greenfield

From craiggreenfield.com: "You might think that Jesus' most subversive teachings should be systematically laid out in a theological textbook. With plenty of dull footnotes. But Jesus knows well that we are people of story and grit. We need to see theological ideas in messy human form so they can spark something real in our imagination. We need to see other people screw up so we can laugh or weep and then imagine that we might dare to risk failure too. Subversive Jesus is the story of [the author and family’s] experiment in putting the most counter-cultural teachings of Christ into practice. … This adventure takes us from the slums of

Cambodia to inner city Canada and back again. Allow our journey to inspire your own. Allow Jesus to subvert what you think you already know. And you'll find that this book becomes an invitation to say yes to this subversive Jesus and do something courageous with your life - for the sake of justice, mercy, and faithfulness in a broken world."
