The irresistible revolution : living as an ordinary radical (Shane Claiborne) 2006

The invitation from Shane Claiborne : " Welcome to the irresistible revolution, a new and ancient way of life that is so attractive, who would settle for anything else? The revolution begins inside each of us, and through little acts of love, it will take over the world. Let us begin to be Christians again. Jesus, give us the courage. "

* ‘We all read the New Testament with a highlighter pen in our hands – highlighting the stuff that we feel comfortable with, and ignoring the rest’.

‘People had taught me what Christians believe, but no one had told me how Christians live’

A couple of quotes form ‘The Irresistible Revolution’ by Shane Claiborne. This book was the subject of the first meeting of the Circuit Book Group which met at Philip and Karen’s house on Tuesday 27th January.

Everyone found a personal challenge in the book: If I take my Christianity seriously, how does that mean I should live? What should I change?
