You are invited to participate in a discussion of The Faith later this summer (to be announced). Anyone is welcome!

"This book reads like a novel and packs the wallop of a sledge hammer"-- Bill Hybels.

"Christianity is often mischaracterized by the media, misused by politicians, and mistaught by academics, making it misunderstood by most Americans. This book is a clear, concise, and compelling summary of what followers of Jesus actually believe." -- Rick Warren
