A Dangerous Dozen
Sometimes What We Need Most Is What We Fear Most "Times change and situations seem to change, but there is still a great need for prophets, for God's ambassadors, to stand up and be counted. Who will dare to be Paul the Apostle today, or Dorothy Day, or Francis of Assisi, or Dietrich Bonhoeffer? Who will dare, when God calls, to say, 'Here I am, Lord. Send me ?" from the Foreword by Archbishop Desmond Tutu Meet twelve fascinating at times, intimidating Christian change agents who were unafraid to ask what God would have them do in the face of life s realities and unafraid to go ahead and do it. Their words and actions challenged the status quo, and in so doing they showed the face of Jesus to the Church and to the world. Whether calling us to live simply in the name of Jesus, showing the way to genuine peacemaking, or exemplifying the true meaning of courage, the legacies of these blessed troublemakers continue to inspire us today if we let them. Paul of Tarsus Mary Magdalene Origen of Alexandria Francis of Assisi Hildegard of Bingen Thomas Cranmer Sojourner Truth Dorothy Day Dietrich Bonhoeffer Janani Luwum Oscar Romero K. H. Ting"

We risk becoming vulnerable as we share awkward and even unacceptable texts and interpretations, but it is this very vulnerability that allows our dialogue to move forward." —from the Introduction Expanding on the conversation started with their very successful first book, the Interfaith Amigos—a pastor, a rabbi and an imam...

God gives us a new heart to do this work, and every time we gather to do it, God offers a pacemaker jolt to tweak our heart's rhythm. The challenge is this: will our hearts respond with a strengthened beat, in tune with God’s own heartbeat, sending more life out into the world?" —from the Introduction Explore our connections—as human beings with each other, as one nation with all other nations, as the human species ...
