Shane Claiborne's book of the above title is probably one of the most provocative and uncomfortable things I've read in years. I love it! Much like the words of Jesus, this book challenges our safe brand of faith, calling us to live as "ordinary radicals". Through his experimental community, The Simple Way, Shane is exploring a life of simplicity, love, and activism and shares his experiences here. Shane's writing is subversive, challenging, and very humerous. It is taking me weeks and weeks to read this book because every chapter leaves me reeling, needing time to recover before dipping in again. This book is like throwing tabasco sauce into your meal - be prepared to be thoroughly unsettled.
