"One of the best Christian books I've ever read. Read this book an it'll mess you up - and that's what he wants. Claiborne's perspective if fresh and thoughtful. I couldn't put the book down."

"I don't agree with Claiborne's "generous orthodoxy" stance, but it's impossible to argue with his simple commitment to living out the Gospel in everyday life. When I finished this book, I wanted to sell all my stuff and hang out with poor people...and that's the point. If Tolstoy and Francis of Assisi hold any appeal, this book will too, as it's basically their ideas, framed for modern, post-church Christians."

"This is not my super-favorite book ever, but I think it could be a worthwhile read if you were in that place where what you really want is a no-holds-barred juicy lecture. However, I am both a veteran recipient of lectures and a professional giver of lectures, and so I sort of found myself disecting this book more than it was meant to be disected. Yes. It's true. I even found myself throwing the book angrily onto the bed and saying, to no one in particular, "No logic! No logic at all!" I then had a mental argument with the author about how he completely fails to back up any of his claims with rhetoric and allows his emotions to dictate his rational thought. And no, I am not some wierd member of the "Worship Mister Spock" cult. I guess that's just the difference between me and Shane Claiborn."

By Jud, League City, TX

"The Irresistible Revolution is a book written from a place of love by someone who has put his love into action, and as such, I would recommend it to anyone who can read around its sometimes glaring flaws to find the challenging truths that make up the bulk of the book.

Claiborne writes with humor, kindness, and humility. He challenges the status quo of American Christianity, calling us to love the poor. He shines light on and brings into question beliefs and practices of both conservative and liberal Christians. Above all, he challenges all of us to know the poor. He writes, "I had come to see that the great tragedy in the church is not that rich Christians do not care about the poor but that rich Christians do not know the poor." How else can we truly love them? Claiborne goes on to say, "I truly believe that when the poor meet the rich, riches will have no meaning. And when the rich meet the poor, we will see poverty come to an end."

He calls us from the isolation and - ironically - crowd-focused mentality of the church we have built in America to an all-encompassing love.

The problems come when Claiborne misuses Scripture to make valid points. For example, in Chapter 12, he makes reference to 2 Samuel 7, in which David decides to build a temple for God - a "permanent residence," so to speak - but God tells David that he is not the man to build a temple. Claiborne uses this passage to validate his point that God doesn't want us constructing multimillion-dollar church buildings. "God just digs camping," he writes, seeming to completely ignore the next part of the passage, in which God says that David's son will build Him a temple (v. 12-13).

The point is valid and he could have simply relied on Acts 17:24 (God does not live in "temples built by hands") - a verse he references in the same paragraph - to make it, not to mention the time he spends prior to this talking about the church's misguided endeavors to draw crowds, from which the desire to build these "temples" grows.

These instances of scriptural manhandling are not numerous, but they stick out like the Crystal Cathedral and will probably lead many readers to completely dismiss Claiborne.

The end product, though, is a challenging, convicting work that needs to be read. Christians should read this book for Claiborne's heart, even if his head is not always in the right place."
