The Heart of Christianity: Rediscovering a Life of Faith

Short Review: This is a book about the essentials of Christianity written from an Emergent (his word) Christian. Really it is works through most of the traditional areas of systematic theology from a Liberal Protestant perspective. He brings useful counterpoint to many Evangelical theological ideas. So Evangelicals will alternately be frustrated and intrigued. This isn't a book I would say is a must read. But for those that like reading outside their tradition, this is a good book to give perspective to liberal Christianity that takes seriously a real faith in God. While Evangelicals will disagree with a lot of theological points, they will find real and honest Christian faith at the root of it.
