A truly thought-provoking book about discipleship based on the Anabaptist traditions. Highly recommended to anyone involved within a Christian community (such as a church, school, etc.). A few of the chapters that really spoke to me were about habitual humility, stubborn loyalty, authentic witness, and subversive spirituality.

This is my top pick for any group trying to work through the hard task of what forgiveness IS/ISN'T and how best to make that journey. It speaks to the heart of a community's ability to truly live out forgiveness. Challenging but very rewarding!
