"Open Christianity" is an invitation to keep the faith but drop the dogma. Many Christian-heritage seekers struggle with conflicted yearning. They value much that the tradition offers. But the church door feels closed unless they accept beliefs at odds with logic and the truth of their hearts. "Open Christianity" maintains that yes, you can leave behind that which has ceased to make sense, and still be very Christian. Burklo's discussion of complex topics such as "a theology of 'enough'," "soulful sexuality" and "the gospel truth" will be controversial--but enlightening. A product of the author's work as a Stanford chaplain, a Protestant pastor, and an urban/street minister, this book encourages spiritual growth that won't founder on efforts to believe the unbelievable.

This thought-provoking guide takes a candid look at the moral issues we face in our daily lives. Using the Ten Commandments as a starting point, the authors bring fresh analysis to such problems as the morality of war in a nuclear age, equitable tax structures, abortion, marital fidelity, capital punishment, care of aging parents, euthanasia, homosexuality, and other contemporary concerns. Beyond Moralism offers solid guidance that is consistent with the Word of God as heard throughout the ages.

The Easter Moment

The Easter Moment tells the moving story of Spong's friendship with a young physician dying of cancer and how that relationship shed new light on the years of study the author has devoted to the great mystery of what actually happened on that long-ago Easter when the whole history of the human race was changed. Spong is willing to ask tough and searching questions and to come up with startling and significant answers to what happened after death that first fateful Easter, and what that means for thinking about life after death today.
