Building on his bestselling books Rescuing The Bible From Fundamentalism and Living In Sin?, Bishop Spong explores the future of ethics, prayer, and Christianity itself. His manifesto is both the summation of his life's work and a guide for every reader searching for a reasoned, just, and loving faith. (cover blurb)

The author is a retired bishop of the Episcopal Church, and is noted for his controversial, progressive, some say heretical, views about Christianity: its doctrines and dogmas, teachings and practices. I enjoy his work -- he presents well-reasoned arguments to support his positions. While I don't necessarily agree with all of his conclusions, he appears to operate from the same mind-set about his faith that I do about mine: God gave me intelligence and I'm allowed to use it.
