Sacrilege #SpeakeasySacrilege
I received a copy of Hugh Halter’s Sacrilege through Speakeasy On Tap. My only real interaction with Hugh has been hearing him speak once and talking with others about the Tangible Kingdom.
Sacrilege was a pleasantly surprising book, one which breathed a lot of life into me as I heard a lot of similarities between Hugh’s experience and what we’re trying to do with Sacred Roots. Sacrilege is a book that identifies sacred cows, puts them on an alter and slaughters them for all to see.
It’s a book that helps us reconnect with all the little ways Jesus rubbed religious folks the wrong way by connecting with those outside, and being quite sacreligious in terms of some of the things he did.
Honestly, that’s about all the review I can give this. It’s good. I could probably nitpick a couple things, but I’m not going to, because overall this is the kind of book that a number of us need to read and be reintroduced to living the way of Jesus, who was mocked by the Pharisees for being a friend of sinners. At some point it will probably make you feel a little uncomfortable, but it’s an uncomfort worth pushing through. Go read it now!
