Publisher's Synopsis
Praise for Soul Graffiti
"Encouraging readers to become apprentices of Jesus, Scandrette provides stories of ordinary people struggling to follow Jesus, and offers spiritual practices for those who want to do likewise. The book′s focus on the responsibility of each Christian to be part of the "genesis–vision" of God in other words, to be a co–creator with God will speak to contemporary readers who find Jesus more compelling than the institutional church. They will also appreciate its eclectic mix of ecology, social justice, biblical theology and a smattering of wisdom from other faith perspectives..."
Publishers Weekly
"Through Mark′s rich insights and reflections, and especially through his stories... about Jack, Richard, Gary, Caroline, Emperor Arcadia (you′ll never forget him!), Michelle, Beryl, and many others, you′ll get an honest and inspiring view of what ′the emergent conversation′ is really about, and what it′s for."
Brian McLaren, author/activist (brianmclaren.net)
"Soul Graffiti is not so much a book as it is an encounter a deadly serious encounter with a Christianity that is urban, American, un–institutionalized, and now. If you truly like your own Christian walk just the way it is, you definitely should not read this book."
Phyllis Tickle, religion analyst and compiler, The Divine Hours
"Mark Scandrette guides us in this beautifully written and brilliantly illustrated book along a path towards actualized spirituality in a postmodern world. The book provides new avenues to ancient truths."
Tony Campolo, professor of sociology, Eastern University
