The Last Word and the Word After That Book Three in The New Kind of Christian TrilogyIn the final installment of The New Kind of Christian Trilogy, Pastor Dan Poole and his friends face and survive their questions, doubts, and dark nights of the soul. They begin to imagine a new vision of God-and a new way of life that is more truly biblical and faithful, more inspiring and challenging, more intellectually satisfying and emotionally healing than conventional religious life. Those seeking more authentic ways to hold and practice Christian faith will find needed hope and insight in this intense and human fictional tale."With the passion of a Reformation broadside, Brian McLarena?s The Last Word and the Word After That goes for popular Christianitya?s theological jugular: hell and damnation. McLarena?s fictional Pastor Dan deconstructs dangerous understandings of eternal life and points toward the joy-filled possibility of Christian community shaped by a radical biblical vision of Goda?s love and justice." -Diana Butler Bass, author, Strength for the Journey and Christianity for the Rest of UsMcLaren, Brian D. is the author of 'Last Word and the Word after That', published 2008 under ISBN 9780470248423 and ISBN 0470248424.
