How can a fourth-century theology be relevant today? Is the Bible meant to be taken literally? Can Jesus be stripped of some of his titles? These are just a few of the questions that the author, a Progressive Christian Episcopal clergy person, answers in this provocative book.
Cramming for the Finals offers fresh ideas on how to look at God/Creator, Jesus the human, Paul, Mary (wife of Jesus), the Bible, Mariology, dogma, and doctrine. As the author takes you through his fascinating life’s journey, he reveals the tremendous power that the man Jesus, who was executed almost two thousand years ago, still can have on individuals and the world today.
You’ll discover new ways to look at ancient ideas, why we need to promote God and demote Jesus, how four-thousand-year-old ideas can work now, ways to think outside the institutional church’s tight little box, and how to save the church from itself.
This book challenges longstanding beliefs to make Christianity speak to people in the twenty-first century.

The Honest Roots of Terrorism
Roger Lee Ray,D.Min.
pastor, The Emerging Church
It is completely irrational to blame all of Islam for terrorists that claim to be Muslim but it is also not honest to ignore the fact that Saudi funded and protected dissemination of Wahhabism is not at the root of virtually all Islam associated terrorist groups. It is also important to note that since 9-11 we have suffered about 40 deaths per year from Islamic terrorists, about as many as we suffer from dairy cows even though there is not a $40 billion government agency protecting us from dairy cows. We need to regain a balanced view of reality.
