God on Earth

“If you’ve got your bags packed and are ready to go and incarnate the gospel in this culture, think again. Better let the books in the Dialogue of Faith series rearrange what you take with you. Already this series has shown me my desperate need to unpack some baggage and repack for the challenges of tomorrow.”
–Leonard Sweet, author of Out of the Question…Into the Mystery

“Doug Banister takes us to some of the less-clear edges of the spiritual life, where many believers do not venture. And he can do this because he is clear that Christ is the Center. If your faith raises issues that are not often touched on in church, then read God on Earth. It will make you think. And hope!”
 –Leighton Ford, president of Leighton Ford Ministries

“Good essays offer a thoughtful writer’s flashes of insight on one focused topic after another. God on Earth is the work of a good essayist, and this collection works like a night of watching fireworks.”
–Brian McLaren, pastor, author of A Generous Orthodoxy and The Church on the Other Side

“Open this book and step inside a church that is true to Scripture, yet reconfigured for today’s world. If you suspect there is more to church than the Sunday morning production; if you are a Christian leader, tired of playing church; if you are a new Christian who wants an excellent introduction to church, then you must read this book.”
–Chuck Smith, jr., pastor, author of Epiphany: Discover the Delight of God’s Word
