Saving Jesus from the Church: How to Stop Worshiping Christ and Start Following JesusMany Christians today are concerned by what they see as a combination of bad theology and bad behavior on the part of the Church. They seek another answer to their spiritual questions, but that answer might just be Christianity, albeit a Christianity with a new approach.

Many Christians today are concerned by what they see as a combination of bad theology and bad behavior on the part of the Church. They seek another answer to their spiritual questions, but that answer might just be ... Christianity, albeit a Christianity with a new approach.

Pastor and author Robin Meyers argues that important doctrinal points must be rethought in more modern terms. According to Meyers, Christians needs to see Jesus as a teacher, not a savior. Prosperity is a dangerous condition, not a divine one. And Christianity itself has to do more with compassion than condemnation. Saving Jesus from the Church shows us what it means to be a Christian in the twenty-first century.

Robin Meyers, Ph.D., is the senior minister at Mayflower Congregational UCC Church in Oklahoma City and professor of rhetoric in the Philosophy Department at Oklahoma City University. He is a syndicated columnist and award-winning commentator for National Public Radio. He was featured in the HBO documentary, "The Execution of Wanda Jean," for his efforts to save the life of the first woman to be executed in Oklahoma. Meyers writes regularly for The Christian Century and is the author of four books. He and his wife, Shawn, have three children. They live in Oklahoma City.

"Every once in a while, a book comes along that changes everything. This is the book. It is scholarly, pastoral, prophetic, and eloquent - all in equal measure. The invitation to follow Jesus instead of worshiping Christ could not come at a more important time, or be issued by a more credible source. Robin Meyers has spoken truth to power, and the church he loves will never be the same."

- Desmond Tutu--Dr. James A. Forbes, Jr., president and founder of The Healing of the Nations Foundation

Great product! Durable, chewable, awesomeness!
Color: Grilled color, Color: Grilled color
Very well made and durable. My dog hasn't left them alone since i opened them. Hes been at it for about 45 minutes straight now! Lol. He's an avid chewer. He will chew thru and fabric or cloth toys in less then a day. But these are what he really likes because they take time to chew apart. The shapes, are great, because one he props up with his paws and chews and it seems like it's easy to grip for him. Thru are hard so if you have hard floors it can get a bit noisy when he drops them. Over all this is a great product. Safe, chewable, long lasting, fun shape looks real to him (i think lol), Me and my dog Lucky are both happy with his new toys!

Amazingly great product!
Color: Grilled color
I’m not just saying this, ok, this is not hyperbole: this is THE best nylon bone for chewing that I have ever purchased. And you get TWO of them for relatively less expensive than most chew toys give you one! I have 2 golden retrievers, and if you know goldens, you know that they are some of the most relentless and powerful chewers around. So I can’t give them almost any toy other than rubber stuff or it will be destroyed in a period of time that doesn’t make it worth it. One of them even figured out how to destroy a supposedly indestructible toy made out of kevlar! She was able to get into it through the seam, which is not kevlar ha ha. Anyway, I digress; I never even considered nylon chews because they suck! Usually. Usually my dogs in the past have lost interest with them in less than a day. I took a chance on these mainly because of the novel shapes, the fact that they give you two, and the low price. Both my goldens LOVE these! Not just for one day, but going on weeks now! I don’t know if it’s the flavor or what, but I will see them gnawing on one of them at some point every day. And they CAN’T destroy them (I knew nylon was good for that, but it was the “who cares” attitude of my previous dogs toward nylon that kept me away). Both the “ribs” and “steak” (quite clever) are a bit worn on the edges now, but they look like they will be around for years. You can’t go wrong with this product (unless for some reason your dog does not like the flavor, but the flavor seems to be what draws my dogs to them). I highly recommend this (these) as the most cost-effective chew toy I’ve ever purchased.

Great for larger dogs
Color: Grilled color
I think they were heavy duty and durable, but they were too heavy for my dog. The seller was excellent though!
