Endorsements
I found this book to be a fascinating, challenging, insightful, practical, and surprisingly personal discussion of how Christians can grow in both knowledge and love.

I know most of the contributors of this book pretty well. A couple of them I am glad to call friends. And a couple of them, to be honest, I have found myself at odds with on a few occasions. But thats why I like this book. It shows the possibility for civil discourse, and it reminds us that its just as important to be nice as it is to be right. Allow it to move you closer to Jesus and closer to the poor. So read it and thenthink. love. and act.
