  <default_description>&lt;b&gt;What do the life and teaching of Jesus have to say about the most critical global problems in our world today?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;p&gt;Acclaimed author and Emergent church leader Brian McLaren states, &quot;More and more Christian leaders are beginning to realize that for the millions of young adults who have recently dropped out of church, Christianity is a failed religion. Why? Because it has specialized in dealing with 'spiritual needs' to the exclusion of physical and social needs. It has focused on 'me' and 'my eternal destiny,' but it has failed to address the dominant societal and global realities of their lifetime: systemic injustice, poverty, and dysfunction.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;McLaren asks, &quot;Shouldn't a message purporting to be the best news in the world be doing better than this?&quot; What he sets forth in this provocative, unsettling work is a &quot;form of Christian faith that is holistic, integral, balanced, that offers good news for both the living and the dying, that speaks of God's grace at work both in this life and the life to come, both to individuals and to societies and the planet as a whole.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[This was a very practical follow up to McLaren's Secret Message of Jesus.  He thoughtfully teases out what he sees to be the major crises in the world, how the church has failed at engaging them, and how we might better respond to the crises in new and different ways according to the life and teachi...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/46576178">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I have been anticipating this book for awhile, and I found it to be very refreshing. Some of McLaren's books feel as if they are simply stating what the last book said in a different format ... but not this book. He does an excellent job providing a model by which christians can interact with global...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/23643633">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I so appreciate McLaren's voice of sensibility and reason.  It seems like so many people these days have a kooky idea of what Christianity should look like in the world without thinking it through all the way.  I enjoy the fact that McLaren writes with compassion and hope rather than anger the way s...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/51271069">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[We all need to have our notions of faith stretched.  Brian's newest book refuses to stretch our thinking.  He invites (compels?) us to rethink everything, because until we do life on earth will continue to hasten to unsustainability.  Rightly understood, the gospel changes us, our families, our comm...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/7679547">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[i would have given this book five stars, but i still think mclaren doesn't go far enough. he's still so afraid of making conservative evangelicals mad that he hedges his bets and doesn't word things strongly enough. he also gets close to daniel quinn but shows that he hasn't read quinn's work, which...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/7454647">more...</a>]]></body>

It is a well written description of the application of the Gospel message to global challenges; prosperity, security, inequity, etc. I definitely feel hopeful.]]></body>
