Thoughtful Christianity: Faith and Action in the Way of Jesus

oeThe next revival must be an awakening in the intellect of Christians ready to mark the life of the church and of the broader society with a thoughtful faith. �

Thoughtful Christianity provides a guide to Christian faith that honors tradition while embracing modern thought and valuing critical reflection. Daniel examines the extreme polarization of Christianity in the last century and argues that American Christians are in need of an awakening of the mind. He suggests a way of life that includes commitment to education, high value placed on curiosity, and instruction from oethose with the courage to be corrected. � Divided into three parts, the book explores how science can inform faith, the marks of a thoughtful life, and some suggestions for living a thoughtful life. Daniel shows us how we can move forward, unbound by labels, to know and serve God better.
