Tenth Anniversary Edition, with a New Preface by the Author

A fresh, new exploration of who God is and what God wants for creation.

Danielle Shroyer introduces us to a God who delights in breaking through boundaries, loves to pop up in unexpected places, and favors the outsider over the institutional insider. Written for anyone longing for a more generous and loving God, this book offers a new paradigm through which faith can be understood. This boundary-breaking God engages life at every corner--social, economic, political, intellectual, ecological--and offers a refreshing view of God that is creative and expansive.

A refreshing, challenging book about the nature of God

December 7, 2009

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

Danielle Shroyer wants to change the way you think about God.

In The Boundary-Breaking God, Shroyer proposes a central thesis: that God is about expansion, about movement, about breaking down walls and muddying boundaries. In seven brief chapters, she takes this thesis and shows us what it looks like when applied to issues of social justice, diversity, church politics, pastoral ministry and even eschatology. She calls upon the reader to live into the resurrection, and away from bigotry, fear, and passive acceptance of systems of oppression.

The book reads like a series of seven sermons, each chapter a well-constructed little gem with illustrations from Shroyer's own life as well as carefully selected Biblical passages and references to a variety of theologians and scholars. It comes across as a light, easy read, which belies the careful construction of Shroyer's argument and her clear homiletic skill. The reader finds herself accepting the thesis, perhaps without considering the weight of what is being proposed: an alternate view of reality, a new set of spectacles with which to view God's work in the world.

At a quick 125 pages, it's worth picking this up even if you already have a few stacks around the house awaiting your attention ... if for no other reason than to consider how your life might be different if you took the book's proposition seriously.

Helpful Witness to a Pastoral Emergence Theology

February 4, 2013

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

This book beautifully illustrates an intelligently heart-felt narrative of Scripture that a pastor could preach and practice in a local congregation. One might hope for that pastor to reflect similar sensibilities as does Shroyer, whose Journey congregation, when I visited, appeared as authentic and open as she presents it in this book. The utility of this work is in its artful presentation that invites the reader to enter into emergence Christianity in all the humanity, biblical context, and life story which the author presents. The book presents a powerful vision of hope and promise that may touch many looking for a practical and grounded approach to seeing a new Christianity that would speak to the contemporary lives of people in the pew.

This is an amazing, beautiful, and tremendously well-written book. Shroyer tells the story of God's interaction with humankind in a way that is both accessible to those who are unfamiliar with story and sophisticated enough for those who are highly trained in these matters. I'm grateful for this insightful reminder of the hope that exists in God's promises and highly recommend this inspiring book.

Life-changing book!

November 5, 2009

Format: Hardcover

To say that Danielle Shroyer is talented does not even come close to describing this up and coming author. She serves as a wonderful vessel for God to speak through and lays out God's everlasting promise and love in such a way that is moving to the human heart and intoxicating to the human spirit. Chapters five and six are particularly incredible and inspiring. Shroyer sprinkles her hysterical sense of humor throughout the book, makes authentic connections to God's word in her own life experiences, and offers an addicting sense of hope and promise through an unveiling relationship with God. The Boundary-Breaking God is not only a "must read," but it's a "must read over and over."
