Radical Gifts

In this new and updated edition of his 1984 classic A Primer on Radical Christianity, Gene Marshall continues his "effort to envision for the general reader the radical gifts of the Christian revelation for the tasks of realistic living in our contemporary settings." Progressive Christians will be immediately drawn to Marshall's discussions of "Spirit" sickness and how to heal it, his reflections on the nature of God, the relevance of the life of Jesus for people today, and the importance of community and of ethical thinking, which are as fresh and challenging today as they were when he first wrote on these topics. This edition features two new appendices, which contain updates to his original chapters on "ethical thinking" and "the community of the committed."
