N.T. Wright
“My main argument in this book is that when we understand the Christian message, we will see that it does indeed “make sense” of our world, because it helps us both to understand the world the way it is and to be able to contribute fresh “sense” through our own lives.”
N.T. Wright, Broken Signposts: How Christianity Makes Sense of the World

Brian Zahnd
“So viewed through the American lens, Christianity is seen to endorse democracy and capitalism, just as it was once seen in Europe to endorse monarchy and feudalism. To even suggest that Jesus doesn’t necessarily endorse every aspect of Jeffersonian democracy and laissez-faire capitalism is enough to get you burned at the stake (hopefully only in a metaphorical sense).”
Brian Zahnd, A Farewell to Mars: An Evangelical Pastor's Journey Toward the Biblical Gospel of Peace

Tom     Wright
“To grasp all this requires faith. To live by it will take courage. But it is that faith, and that courage, which this book is written to evoke.”
Tom Wright, Revelation for Everyone

N.T. Wright
“What Paul is saying is that the gospel, through which people receive the divine gift, reconstitutes them as genuine humans, as those who share the “reign” of the Messiah.”
N.T. Wright, The Day the Revolution Began: Reconsidering the Meaning of Jesus's Crucifixion

Brian Zahnd
“Babylon continues to tell itself that if its economy and military are strong enough, it can guarantee its security. But Jesus said this is not so. With the coming of the Son of Man before the Ancient of Days, the nations who continue to act with imperial arrogance instead of human compassion are doomed to destruction.”
Brian Zahnd, A Farewell to Mars: An Evangelical Pastor's Journey Toward the Biblical Gospel of Peace
