From There and Back Again: Volume 1 (A Vintage Christian Novel) - Tapa blanda

Is Your Faith Still Relevant In Our Modern World?

Peter Daniel Young has a problem: He's a post-evangelical twentysomething who has come back home again to study to be a pastor, but is immediately caught in the tension of his nagging conservative parents, post-Christian brother, new progressive friends, a missionary kid turned Buddhist love interest, and a Reformed seminary professor who challenges his beliefs at every turn. More troublesome yet: He now questions the progressive faith he carefully constructed to save his Christianity, and finds himself returning to the faith he thought he left behind. Written in the style of Brian McLaren’s award-winning A New Kind of Christian trilogy and Donald Miller’s Blue Like Jazz, From There and Back Again is a fresh, insightful spiritual coming-of-age story for a new generation of young adults wondering if the vintage Christian faith still connects to their modern world. Jeremy Bouma, a former Emergent Church insider, fictionalizes his own young adult spiritual journey to help a new generation wrestle through deep questions of faith, life, and everything in between. He wrote it to be the book he wished he had and his parents had during his own crisis of faith. Whether you are facing your own faith crisis or you know of someone who is struggling themselves, discover along with Peter what the vintage Christian faith means for him, his family and friends, his life in the Church—and for you.

Jeremy Bouma has pastored on Capitol Hill in Washington D.C. and with the Evangelical Covenant Church in Michigan. He is the founding director of THEOKLESIA, a content curator dedicated to helping the 21st century church rediscover the vintage Christian faith. He lives in Grand Rapids with his wife and son.
