Connecting Like Jesus

"Tony Campolo is recognized as one of the Christian subcultures most effective speakers. Hes a riveting communicator who knows exactly how to frame his speeches so that they connect with his audience, using humor, poignant and engaging stories, and personal charm. Mary Darling, who was his coauthor on The God of Intimacy and Action, is a spiritual director who also teaches speech communication at Spring Arbor University (a Christian school in Michigan) and is a skillful teacher in her own right. They have teamed up again to write a book to explore the connection between spirituality/spiritual practices and the ability to communicate passionately and effectively. Since so much of what goes on in churches and other religious organizations has to do with communication (speaking and preaching), readers will be eager to hear Campolos secrets and Marys intelligent counsel on what many people find to be frightening or just plain difficult to do well. Includes interviews with prominent Christian leaders and thinkers: --Shane Claiborne, author of The Irresistible Revolution (Zondervan 2006, over 100,000 copies sold) and Jesus for President (Zondervan, March 2008, over 31,000 copies sold)  --Brian McLaren, author of A New Kind of Christian, Generous Orthodoxy, and Everything Must Change; named by Time magazine as one of Americas most influential evangelicals in 2005.  --Mindy Caliguire, founder of Soul Care, a spiritual formation ministry, and speaker and leadership consultant, working with local churches and national groups such as Willow Creek Community Church, Renovare, The Upper Room, and InterVarsity Christian Fellowship. Her books include the new  Soul Care Series: Discovering Soul Care, Spiritual Friendship, Soul Searching, and Simplicity."

Red Letter Revolution: What If Jesus Really Meant What He Said?

"Framed as a captivating dialogue between Shane Claiborne, a progressive young evangelical, and Tony Campolo, a seasoned pastor and professor of sociology, Red Letter Revolution is a life-altering manifesto for skeptics and Christians alike. Best-selling authors Shane Claiborne and Tony Campolo talk candidly about the life and teaching of Jesus and the wisdom he offers our fractured world. It is time to re-imagine the world and the way we live-the old patterns of politics, economics, and religion that aren't working. It's time for a new kind of Christianity. In Red Letter Revolution, best-selling authors Shane Claiborne and Tony Campolo take on the hardest issues facing our world. They show that Jesus' example is relevant and revolutionary and call us back to a Christianity that looks like him again. In this ambitious project, they mine the words of Jesus-the "red letters" of Scripture-asking the simple question, "What if we lived out the stuff he said?" From the power in Washington to the poverty in rural towns to the broken systems everywhere else, the world is looking for salvation. But this salvation is not just for people's souls-it's for schools, governments, churches, and families. Red Letter Revolution is about politics, but it's fresh. It's about theology, but it's real. It's about economics, but it's interesting. It's about Jesus, who longs to transform the world despite the embarrassing things his followers have done in his name. For conservatives and progressives, skeptics and believers, Red Letter Revolution undertakes the world-shaping mission to understand how Jesus' words could change everything-if we'd only give them a chance."

Adventures in Missing the Point: How the Culture-Controlled Church Neutered the Gospel

"If you’re brave enough to take an honest look at the issues facing the culture–controlled church–and the issues in your own life–read on. Do you ever look at how the Christian faith is being lived out in the new millennium and wonder if we’re not doing what we’re supposed to be doing? That we still haven’t quite “gotten it”? That we’ve missed the point regarding many important issues? It’s understandable if we’ve relied on what we’ve been told to believe or what’s widely accepted by the Christian community. But if we truly turned a constructive, critical eye toward our beliefs and vigorously questioned them and their origins, where would we find ourselves? Best-selling authors Brian McLaren and Tony Campolo invite you to do just that. Join them on an adventure–one that’s about uncovering and naming faulty conclusions, suppositions, and assumptions about the Christian faith. In Adventures in Missing the Point, the authors take turns addressing how we’ve missed the point on crucial topics such as: Salvation, The Bible, Being Postmodern, Worship, Homosexuality, Truth, and many more…"
