Rather than urging readers to walk away, Tongol invites them to look again with fresh eyes and to think beyond the institutional structures of the church. Drawing on personal stories, some of them very funny, he asks hard questions about fear-driven religion and offers a more generous picture of God and spirituality.
It is written for those who suspect there is a better message than the one they have heard, and who want to find it.
