I LOVE Brian's book Faith After Doubt. My favorite line from this interview was when Brian was answering the parenting question and he said let love be the reason. This was a beautiful interview. Thanks, Aubrey and Tim!

Thank you for this. Well done! For years I've read or listened to McLaren when I have cognitive dissonance with what I know and what The Church teaches, practices, or values. Like one of you said, it's amazing how well his journey mirrors our own. Thank-you for asking the questions you did. (I shared on FB with longer thoughts.)

So good! I think many of us are reconsidering what we believe and what is actually True! Thank you!

consider Bruce Hafen, and his fairly new book ' Faith is Not Blind', which addresses the simplicity, complexity and the simplicity beyond complexity!! I must read.

Not a helpful book at all, in my view. Hafen certainly addresses ambiguity and complexity, but only at a surface level, glossing over the difficulties (even somewhat mocking a doubter for not having known about difficult issues) and advocating that we can get past the issues and back to the certainty if we just give our doubts over to the Lord. That is not healthy, at all, and is more of a shaming mechanism for those who have tried this method without success. McLaren is advocating for something more mature, giving room for doubts to coexist with our faith. That is where the future of the church lies, if it is going to survive and thrive. In reality, once you get past the surface acknowledgment of difficulties, Hafen is one of the "gatekeepers" McClaren discusses near the end of his interview, and his book seems written to that effect.

I need to read this book. I also loved Faith is not Blind by the Hafens. Very similar thoughts. It’s beautiful!

Similar at a surface level, but the solutions are so different. See my reponse to ceci below.
