A new book by Alex McManus will be released soon – Making the world human again.
From the back cover…
Why did Jesus come into the world?
According to McManus, contrary to popular opinion, Jesus Christ came neither to teach Christianity nor to establish the Christian religion.
The goal of the life and teaching of Jesus is not to make the Hindu, Buddhist, Muslim, or Jew a Christian. Neither did Jesus come with the goal of showing us how to be Christians. What Jesus wants for all people whether religious or secular, Republican or Democrat, liberal or conservativeis that they turn away from destructive, non-life-giving systems and join him on the quest to find their humanity again.

I’m looking forward to this!
hey Sam, yeah, I can’t wait either. I keep seeing conflicting dates on when it releases though.. i’ve seen august, october, and ‘09?
Interesting…I was expecting a September release?!
Sam, I thought Alex told us in Feb that it would be out in Oct? Maybe that was a conservative estimate since those companies always move back dates like this. I was expecting Weezer’s new album to be out in April but it’s now June >:-(
yeah, zondervan, amazon u.s. and canada, all say different stuff. Glad you mentioned Weezer, i just dusted off their cd this week… el scorcho just gets more brilliant every time i hear it!
I’m guessing you were a big fan of “Only in dreams” Lon. Am I right?
So both Erwin and Alex have books coming out – very fun!
only in dreams is up there… maybe with ‘the good life’ for me… el scorcho is just the pinnacle for me… i’m just really not sure why their dweeby lyrics connect with me…
