Summary: Out-There Theology
Comment: I think the best thing about this book is the fact that author is so honest with where he is at and what he believes. What he believes comes through strongly in this work, and is very authentic. Sweet articulates better than any I have seen what is going on in the world today and how the church does, and a lot of times, does not relate to it. I devoured this book and fresh look at theology from someone who is not afraid to push the envelope. While many authors in the Christian world rehash the same theories and patterns and ways to be a better Christian, Sweet challenges all of us to get with the times or be irrelevant. I would love to be able to take a class from Sweet someday, and really pick his brain on where he is at. If you enjoyed this book, you would enjoy the Erwin McManus book, "An Unstoppable Force."

Summary: Good summary of previous works
Comment: If this is the first that you have ever heard of postmodernism and the church, this is an incredible book for you to read. If you have read some other books by Sweet, it contains some expanded but not earth shattering new insights on the church in the 21st century. Everything considered, I am glad I bought the book.

Summary: Great Book--Amazing Author
Comment: Leonard Sweet is truly intune with today's world. After reading his book I was very suprised to find out how old he was, because it seems like the only people who are willing to step out and embrace postmodernity(with a few exceptions) are younger people like myself. Post-Modern Pilgrims is a wonderful explanation of what Post-Modernism actually is as well as a guide to what elements of our society are already conforming to it. One thing I find interesting is that one of the last institutions that has not begun to change, and is beginning to die, is the church. Read the book you'll love it. Then read some Brian Mclaren.
