In Re-Claiming the Bible for a Non-Religious World, bishop and
social activist John Shelby Spong argues that 200 years of biblical
scholarship has been withheld from lay Christians. In this
brilliant follow-up to Spong's previous books Eternal Life and
Jesus for the Non-Religious, Spong not only reveals the crucial
truths that have long been kept hidden from the public eye, but
also explores what the history of the Bible can teach us about
reading its stories today and living our lives for tomorrow. Sarah
Sentilles, author of Breaking Up With God: A Love Story, applauds
John Shelby Spong's Reclaiming the Bible for a Non-Religious World,
writing that "pulsing beneath his brilliant, thought-provoking,
passionate book is this question: can Christianity survive the
education of its believers?...A question Bishop Spong answers with
a resounding yes."
