Another World Is Possible, Vol 3: Creation

by Shane Claiborne & Friends

Do It Yourself, DVDs, Music CDs

God took dirt and breathed life into it. And then there was humanity. Humanity took life and breathed dirt into it. And now we have a mess. We are made in the image of a Creator, and yet much of what we have created has made the rest of Creation groan for liberation. In this volume, a host of ordinary radicals invite us to think about what it means to care for the earth, and to be co-creators with a God of beauty rather than destruction. We will see toxic lots become gardens, trash turned into fashion show glamour, used vegetable oil become fuel for diesel engines—ugly things brought to life. There really is the sense that maybe, just maybe, conversion can mean that the world will look different than it does now. Maybe its too much fun for a single volume, but the big-top circus hits the inner city and a group of intergalactic superheroes visit earth & some young collaborative artists teach us why the prophets say that a child will lead us into the dreams of God. That’s what we’re talking about: Creation.

Conspire Issue 2: Sacred Subversions

by Various Contributors

Do It Yourself, Spiritual Practices, Books, Conspire

Poet Wendell Berry’s famous mad farmer urges us: “So friends, every day, do something / that won’t compute. Love the Lord.  / Love the world. Work for nothing. / Take all that you have and be poor.”  This issue of Consp!re focuses on such creativity—small and large actions that work to overturn business as usual and open brilliant windows onto the crazy, grace-filled reign of God. Some of those actions require community; others are individual attempts. You’ll find stories and struggles of living the revolutionary word of Jesus, which intends to reshape our earth, our economy, every human heart, and the entire web of human relationships.  It means no less than to turn the world.

The Irresistible Revolution: Living as an Ordinary Radical

by Shane Claiborne

Alternative Economics, Do It Yourself, Poverty, Books

Product Description
During college, a professor remarked, “Being a Christian is about choosing Jesus and deciding to do something incredibly daring with your life.” Taking up that challenge, Shane’s faith led him to dress the wounds of lepers with Mother Teresa, visit families in Iraq amidst bombings, and dump $10,000 on Wall Street to redistribute wealth. In The Irresistible Revolution, you’ll be challenged by a radical Christianity passionate for peace, social justice, and alleviating the suffering found in the local neighborhood and distant reaches of the world. Live out your faith with little acts of radical love as you join the movement of God’s Spirit into a broken world.

Here’s a Chapter of Shane’s book The Irresistible Revolution. You can now read Chapter 5 “Another Way of Doing Life” for free.

Publisher’s Description
Using unconventional examples from his own life, Shane Claiborne stirs up questions about the church and the world, and challenges readers to truly live out their Christian faith.

The Ordinary Radicals

by Jamie Moffett

Alternative Economics, Community, Do It Yourself, Politics, Prayer, DVDs

In the margins of the United States, there lives a revolutionary Christianity. One with a quiet disposition that seeks to do “small things with great love,” and in so doing is breaking 21st Century stereotypes surronding this 2000 year old faith. The Ordinary Radicals is set against the modern American political and social backdrop of the next Great Awakening. Sharing a relevant outlook for people with all faith perspectives, director Jamie Moffett examines this growing movement.
