ReviewsThorough, fascinating, deep, and relevant. Everything about this book is infectious and inspiring. Whether you are a churchgoer, an atheist, agnostic, spiritually curious, or spiritually burned-out, this book will help!, Bruxy Cavey's The End of Religion is a wonderful contribution that encourages us to think hard about God and the Christian faith., I hope that you can enjoy, as I did, all the different angles from which Bruxy Cavey presents this Jesus who got under the skin of the establishment and religious elites, and who should still get under the skin of some of our religious tendencies., A Jesus-centered spirituality liberated from the vacuous tedium that characterizes moribund religion., Bruxy Cavey writes with both depth and clarity, and most of all, with passion rooted in experience., Calls us back to the fundamentals of a revolution centered in Jesus that radically disrupts the religious status quo., I've rarely encountered a book as packed with game-changing insights. With wisdom, clarity, and humor, Bruxy Cavey dismantles the religious conception of Jesus to reveal the life-transforming beauty of the real, anti-religious Jesus. I could not recommend it more strongly!, Canada's premier Anabaptist voice transcends even his own movement to speak the 'Word made fresh' to the curious and disillusioned alike., Bruxy Cavey does a superb job of sweeping away religious jargon and misconceptions and getting to the heart of who Jesus is and why this matters., Intelligent, provocative, and entertaining. Get this book to find genuine, lasting encouragement and life-giving answers to your most pressing questions about faith in Jesus.
