Foundational and renewing
Format: Kindle
Throughout history, religions have contributed to major atrocities and injustice to some. It is not unusual in my eyes to see a world sceptical of an organization that has these historical marks of shame. At the same time, I have seen religions pulling people together. Communities of believers caught up in something bigger than themselves. Living out a life of love and sacrificing for the good of those who are vulnerable.
The one thing I have seen that is common among the negative experiences is that at their root, it is "men" thinking they can play God. People have had horrible experiences through "men" claiming to represent God, yet their behavior couldn't be further from what we are called to as part of our faith, hope, and belief.
To those that read this, I am sorry for what you have gone through if you have fallen victim to "man's" institution of the Christian faith. God's Word should never be used as a means to justify injustice, racism, condemnation, and other bouts of un-Christian behavior and then using God's name as a crutch. I can tell you, these hypocrites will reap their just reward, and these rewards will not be what they expect.
This book is a refreshing introduction into understanding the roots of faith and Christianity. It can speak as an introduction to those who have never been exposed to Christianity, lying a great foundation. It can speak to those who have fallen away due to bad experiences, allowing one to sift through the experiences exacted by the stupidity of man versus the calling that comes when confessing that YHWH is Creature and LORD. It also can renew ones mind and strengthen ones understanding of the faith they confess and what that means for exacting love into this world and not judgement.
I wouldn't say that this is a conversion book, however it is written from the perspective of one, N. T. Wright, who believes and would love others to come to the same conclusion. I would say that it is more of a fresh introduction into Christianity that challenges those that confess their faith to think twice of how their lives represent their confession.
With sorrow for those that have been burned by their Church experience, to those that need to take a step back and renew their understanding of the faith they profess in Christianity, and to those that are the good Samaritan of the Christian faith, this book is great!

Delicious Theology
Format: Hardcover
I VERY often struggle with this thing:
I know that Christianity does not make sense to many people in this day and culture and I would love to help with that. AT THE SAME TIME, it makes perfect, intuitive sense to me. I know in my bones that Jesus is real, that He loves me and that I am giddy at the prospect of following Him. What this means is that I don't know how to explain that to someone for whom Christianity is a mystery--or worse, an empty ritualized religion. That's why I couldn't wait to read "Simply Christian".
NT Wright tells the reader in his introduction what he was hoping to accomplish in this book:
My aim has been to describe what Christianity is all about, both to commend it to those outside the faith and to explain it to those inside.
I loved this book. The theology in it was so delectable. It presents truth in a way that makes me want to read sections of it over and over again. Wright paints a picture for the reader of the "echoes" of God that are all around us, especially these four:
* Justice
* Spirituality
* Relationships
* Beauty
Wright makes a case that EVERY human being longs for these four things (I agree-do you?) and that that very fact proves the existence of the one true God portrayed in the Bible, made flesh in Jesus Christ. He does a masterful job of describing the salvation history of the Bible in a chapter or two. I found His take on prayer and worship to be beautiful as well. Wright covers the "basics" of the Christian faith in a way that beckons the reader to engage, rather than lecturing the reader who isn't. I took many notes that will be useful in teaching Bible studies in the future.
Of course, in me, Wright had a reader who was already on board. My posture was one of cheerleader--with every lovely truth I was saying "AMEN, brother PREACH IT" and turning the words over on my tongue and in my heart like they were a gourmet meal. I would love to have a skeptic read this--someone who really isn't so sure about Christianity and get their take on it. If you are reading this and you fall into this category, I would purchase the book for you so I could hear what you think. Leave me a comment below...
Wright's closing words are written in my journal and pondered regularly. Maybe you will like them, too:
Christian holiness is not (as people often imagine) a matter of denying something good. It is about growing up and grasping something even better. Made for spirituality, we wallow in introspection. Made for joy, we settle for pleasure. Made for justice, we clamor for vengeance. Made for relationship, we insist on our own way. Made for beauty, we are satisfied with sentiment. But new creation has already begun. The sun has begun to rise. Christians are called to leave behind, the the tomb of Jesus Christ, all that belongs to the brokenness and incompleteness of the present world. It is time, in the power of the Spirit, to take up our proper role, our fully human role, as agents, heralds and stewards of the new day that is dawning. That, quite simply is what it means to be Christian: to follow Jesus Christ into the new world, which he has thrown open before us.

An explanation for a post modern culture
An extension of Wright's book could be "why Christianity makes sense to post modern people". This is a fine book, for what it tries to do, which is to clearly explain what Christianity is about. It is not necessarily designed to persuade anyone, other than to show that what the basic Christian story is about is reasonable and worth taking a look in.
Wright, the Anglican Bishop of Durham, and one of the more renowned and accessible to the public, theologians of our day is at times controversial, but never a poor writer, even to the most untrained ear for the nuances of theology. From the very first paragraph of the book, the reader is alerted that this is a different sort of explanation of the Christian faith, for Wright talks of how people might understand the meaning, but miss the experience of what the yearning for the faith is all about. He talks of justice, beauty, and relationship and how the reality of what we hope for is often far from present, what he calls the "echo of the voice", something that we think that should be there, but is not there at all, and begs the question why.
This book will not help but to be compared to C S Lewis classic work, Mere Christianity. And there are enough similarities between the two, that make the differences jarring enough. Lewis' is more of a classic apologetic. He speaks of universal laws, the differences between longstanding morality and modern pyschology, and the logic of why the Christian Gospel, of the invaision of humanity by the God/man Jesus and how theology is constantly practical in every area of the individual, personal lives of moder people. Written in the 1940's, Mere Christianity answers quite well the challenges of its, and still to a large extent, our age. What Wright is trying to do with "Simply Christian" is to take the same old story and apply to the common questions of our era, from a different perspective.
Loneliness, rejection of an older era, cynicism at the structures designed to meet the challenges of day to day life, like the family, the church, and the state are real actions obviously taken by many today. So for Wright, to begin his work, not by explaining who God is and why man needs him, but instead to point out and agree that there are many things missing and empty in the solutions that post modern people have used for solutions to their concerns about why older systems failed, the older systems that Lewis attempted to answer to in a very reasonable way in Mere Christianity.
Wright does spend a lot more time on how communal activities and experiences are far more vital to the simply Christian life than is realized, and why vital relationships, as expressed in the church, seen as a real community, are the engine for linking understanding and experience. Wright's three common expressions of the Christian life: worship, prayer and Bible study only have their fullest expression when done in community with others, so as to grow as a living, breathing organism might. In so doing, Wright is bridging the gap between the credibility of the Christian message, with those who are disaffected and disbelieving, not at necessarily the propositions in the gospel, but at how the whole system around contemporary life has been disapointing to many.
Developing a theology of the person and work of Jesus has been the hallmark of Wright's career as a pastor and theologian, and it is in writing about who Jesus is and what he has done that this work finds its greatest strength, and to some degree its greatest weakness. He has written how Jesus was the final victory of God, the great exodus of his people and the culmination of a great military campaign to bring justice and the arrival of the kingdom of God on earth. Stupendous claims, as they always are, when fully understood, even more so when contrasted with the paradoxes of the earthly life of Jesus of Nazareth, with the expectations of the Jewish people of first century Palestine. By so doing, Wright encourages the post modern audience to look again at the reality of real history, and the undeniable facts as told, which led to radical conclusions by those who first lived them. It is here that Wright is at his weakest, for he doesn't make the leap between the person and work of Jesus and that connection of justification from sin for today's believer as a direct, actionable item. Not that he denies it, but the connection is just not made at all. Even Lewis spends a great deal of Mere Christianity discussing sin and the necesity of events long ago affecting today's actions.
Nevertheless, this is an important work that should be read by many, especially in the post industrial world. Wright's pastoral call to look to Christ, living out in the community of believers to answer the deep longings and disapointments of the human experience is freshly written and worth considering.

Simple AND essential, everyone should read
Format: Kindle
I've been Christian for many years, reading many books, sermons, biblical readings, but we never stop having more beautiful insights of this glorious Christian path laid before our minds and hearts. This book is a wise, beautiful, encouraging, and simply amazing way to see and live out the Christian life and calling, rich with meaning in our current broken world and the redeemed and restored world in Christ.
Are you yearning for real spirituality, joy, justice, beauty, relationships, but they seem somehow out of reach? Read this book. It is simple yet profound. Take the time to savor the words of this book alongside prayer, biblical reading, community, daily work...And partake in the overlap of heaven and earth with the Lord.
