Just how reformed do you think you are? With clarity of insight that comes only from firsthand experience, the authors of Kinda Christianity take on their own cultural-theological movement, offering tips and tricks for all you New Calvinists. From what to wear to who to marry (and how to court them) to what to read, Ted Kluck and Zach Bartels help you work out your reformedness with fear and trembling. "Kluck and Bartels don't wanna talk, they wanna scream at people, but they don't wanna listen or problem solve and that's what's frustrating about the dynamic of the group."-Richard Slade, M.Div., Princeton Theological Seminary "This is one of those seminal works that embodies a significant portion of our Reformed theological heritage. We all should rejoice to see this material finally available in English "-Cory Hartman, age 12 "Demonstrates an indirect relationship and similarity between the perichoretic 'intra divine' communion and the complementary 'divine-human' relation."-Robert Rusigliano, professional boxer; mason

Ready to translate your quest into action Without defining yourself, and certainly without boxing yourself into one particular rigid way of doing theology or church, you're ready to become emergent. You have a username and clever screen name picked out at Emergent Village(tm), and maybe you've even begun having church in an empty warehouse in the industrial sector of your city. If so, good for you But those are just the first, baby steps in your journey (your dance, if you will) into Kinda Christianity. This book will help you along the rest of your uniquely creative path to super-terrific self-discovery." -From the Introduction For exceprts, study guide, etc., go to http: //www.gutcheckpress.com/kinda/

Eli came back to settle a score. So did his god. For more than three years, the kingdom of Ephraim has been in the paralyzing grip of drought. Tempers flare in the oppressive heat. Water rations are running out. Even a benevolent breeze only serves to stir up dust and disquiet. The masses are growing restless, while the entire kingdom sits on the brink of political implosion. And the only man who can bring rain is the one who stopped it in the first place. Get ready for a prophet you can't ignore. Angry, arrogant, and armed to the teeth, Eli Tishbi is ready for his next assignment. He may not look like a divine messenger, but his god is sending him to settle a score with the king of Ephraim. As his faith and resolve are pushed to the limit, can Eli complete his mission? Or has his conviction finally run out? "a non-stop adrenaline rush to the finish. I gripped my seat, gnashed my teeth, slow-clapped, and even shed a tear . . . In a word: whoa." -Ann mulia, Comic Book Artist, author of Psychoteers and Paladin (This book can be read for free online at www.zacharybartels.com/42monthsdry )
