Justin Rosolino in his book “Idiot, Sojourning Soul: A Post-Secular Pilgrimage” weaves together personal stories, historical context, humour, and his love for Jesus. This is a book that will leads to some serious thinking and reflection on life, your world, and the claims of Jesus.
Rosolino, in this easy to read book, tackles some of the battleground areas in our escalating culture wars, and he does so without hiding behind simplistic answers. Too often Christians have wanted the world to be black and white, but Jesus never was.
Rosolino is obviously well read, quoting and interacting with many religious scholars. What is refreshing is that as he addresses a range of issues, he argues both sides intelligently.
Rosolino examines the modern North American church and understanding of faith in a timely way, calling Christians out and calling the church back to a renewed look at Jesus and his teachings and deeds as recorded in the biblical text.
This is a good read for anyone who wants to understand why “Christian” means something very different to evangelical fundamentalists than it did to early Christians.
5/5 Recommended.
