Summary

Praise for The God of Intimacy and Action "Tony Campolo...and Mary Darling...are like gunpowder and a spark. The result is a dynamite book that many have been waiting a long time for." - Relevant Magazine "In 25 years, when we look back as journalists chronicling this era of religious reawakening-this book likely will turn up as a classic....This book is both a manifesto-and a sturdy guidebook-for the journey of reclaiming much that has been lost." -David Crumm, founder of Read the Spirit "Tony Campolo and Mary Darling...are two first rate minds grappling with classical and contemporary theology, and then adding to that a set of concrete practices...The Network of Spiritual Progressives (including those of us who are not Christian) can draw much wisdom and guidance from this book." - Tikkun Magazine "I know both Tony and Mary personally and can testify to the genuineness of their search for spiritual wholeness. It is a search that always holds in creative tension a profound intimacy with God through Christ with a vigorous engagement in the social realities of our day." -Richard J. Foster, author of Celebration of Discipline "Darling and Campolo sift through the dirt of Christendom and uncover the precious treasures of our faith." -Shane Claiborne, founding member of The Simple Way community; author of The Irresistible Revolution; and recovering sinner
