Faithfully Reading


A BLOG
ABOUT BOOKS
by
John
Tintera
Over the past few years, explorefaith's book editor John
Tintera has been instrumental in crafting explorefaith's Bookshelf section.
Faithfully Reading is a new approach to how we cover the many and diverse books
available in the areas of religion and spirituality. Akin to a real bookshelf
containing both established classics and the latest best-seller, our book
coverage is meant to be used as a resource. John will be writing about some of the books that have been
most spiritually meaningful for him, referencing works that are newly published and those whose wisdom has been proven by time. We hope that his blog will
inspire you to comment on his selections and suggest your own favorites as well, both older books that should not be forgotten and new titles that stir your soul.
John will be faithfully reading on a daily basis, and blogging on
books here about once a week. We hope you will join him
regularly.
A NEW BOOK BY JEAN-PIERRE ISBOUTS
YOUNG JESUS: RESTORING THE “LOST YEARS” OF A SOCIAL ACTIVIST AND RELIGIOUS DISSIDENT
Having read
Marcus Borg and John Dominic Crossan, I was
surprised to find that
a book by a relatively unknown
writer could
impart a good deal
of new information and greatly deepen my
understanding of the
life and mission of Jesus.
