Review
Anderson s Following Jesus is an astonishing gift to our current conversation in religion. Part apologia and part exposition of positions that characterize Quaker theology and praxis, Following Jesus is an insider s look into a stream of Christianity that is of expanding importance to anyone who hopes to understand twenty-first century latinized Christianity where it s coming from, and what it has been informed by. Phyllis Tickle, author of The Great Emergence and Emergence Christianity --Phyllis Tickle
Paul Anderson brings to the church the wisdom that the Friends have gained over the centuries about the way of Jesus. John Ortberg, senior pastor, Menlo Park Presbyterian Church; author of Who Is This Man? --John Ortberg
For those who are hungry for an evangelical spirituality that enables us to listen to the soft inner promptings of God, Paul Anderson s book is food that satisfies. He makes the often neglected faith commitments of George Fox and Quakerism a deep well from which all Christians can quench the thirsts of their souls.
