SUMMARY

"Hilarious, passionate, infuriating, revealing, alarming, perplexing, illuminating. In short, apocalyptic. And definitely required reading for anyone seeking a faithful Christianity in the heart of the American Empire." -Andy Crouch, columnist, Christianity Today"Once in a while a book reaches out from the page, grabs me by the scruff of the neck, and says something so pithy, so smart, and irreverently funny that I almost bust a gut laughing. Thata?s what Post-Rapture Radio did to me on several occasions. The fact is, sometimes satire is the best way for us to see our own foibles, and this book is a wonderful antidote to much that ails the church. Ita?s A Confederacy of Dunces for Christians." -Tony Jones, author, The Sacred Way"Funny and thought-provoking. It challenges the way one thinks about the gospel of Jesus Christ and the church in his name." -Gordon Gano, singer and songwriter, Violent FemmesPraise For Post-Rapture Radio"S?ren Kierkegaard said that people held in the grip of an illusion cannot be directly reasoned with. One must assault them with appealing but apparently absurd stories and even contradictions in the desperate hope that indirect communication can accomplish what direct communication cannot. Russell Rathbun may be Kierkegaarda?s great-grandson or something. If you have no illusions, you dona?t need to read this. Otherwise . . ." -Brian McLaren, pastor (crcc.org), author, A New Kind of Christian (anewkindofchristian.com)"There are times when the tongue-in-cheek can become a light in the mind-when a?off the walla? becomes the plank of reality. Richard Lamblove was a driven crusader in his last-ditch stand against the shallowly fervent. I feel the fury in his futilely scribbling a final battle plan on the remnants of cereal boxes and scraps of cardboard. Alas, were it not for Russell Rathbun, we would not know of these lost writings nor feel the loss of great truth to the forces of evangelical glitz." -Calvin Miller, author, A Hunger for the Holy and Loving God Closeup; professor, Beeson Divinity SchoolRathbun, Russell is the author of 'Post-rapture Radio Lost Writings From The Failed Revolution', published 2005 under ISBN 9780787973933 and ISBN 0787973939.
