David Dark is my favorite critic of the people's culture of America and the Christian faith. He brings a deep sense of reverence to every book he reads, every song he hears, every movie he sees, but it is a discerning reverence--attentive to truth and Jesus wherever he comes on them. He is also a reliable lie detector. And not a dull sentence in the book.
Eugene Peterson, professor emeritus of spiritual theology, translator of The Message

David Dark is one of our wisest authors, and I plan to read everything he writes. The Sacredness of Questioning Everything will comfort questioners, doubters, and skeptics with assurance that their questions can be faithful, and it will challenge the complacent with an ethical summons to wonder. It invites everything to give life--and faith--a second thought, and did I mention that it's beautifully written?
Brian McLaren, author of Everything Must Change

Brilliant and charming and insightful as always, Dark comforts both my soul and my mind with this synthesis, part memoir and part essay, of the culture around us and the culture within us.
Phyllis Tickle, author of The Great Emergence

We will never find the answers until we begin to ask the right questions. Most of us are skeptical of self-righteous folks (whether pastors or politicians) who try to force their answers into you as if truth was an enema. And if there is anything we can learn from both liberals and conservatives, it's that you can have all the right answers and still be mean people. This is not a book of answers. Here is a book of questions--question everything ... including this book.
Shane Claiborne, author of The Irresistible Revolution and Jesus for President, activist, and recovering sinner

This is what I need: a far-reaching Christianity that's not just for the Shiny Happy People but for me, questioning and doubting and trying to live into the mystery. I couldn't ask for a better fellow pilgrim than brainiac David Dark, who feels as comfortable mining The Office and The Colbert Report as he does Dostoevsky and Flannery O'Connor. This book is for everyone who quietly suspects that God is a whole lot bigger than the church would have us believe.
Jana Riess, author of What Would Buffy Do?

In The Sacredness of Questioning Everything, David Dark serves up a unique blend of pop culture and high culture, generously seasoned with religious texts. The result is an immensely readable, profoundly subversive, and deeply prophetic book.
Andrew Bacevich, author of The Limits of Power

In The Sacredness of Questioning Everything, David Dark travels the lonesome highways of the American soul and finds signs of grace where many of us see only despair. Carry this book with you as a guide through these uncertain times.
Charles Marsh, author of Wayward Christian Soldiers

David Dark is a brilliant and respected cultural critic, and here, in this new work, he has done something that very few evangelical writers have done: he truly invites us--no, he calls us--to the holy task of thinking all manner of things through, of saying yes and no, of questioning and seeking and discerning what is most true. We need this kind of feisty, literate, and (dare I say it?) prophetic call, and we will be better--as people and as a Christian community and as a culture--if we take up this unsettling and liberating challenge.
Byron Borger, owner of Hearts & Minds bookstore, Dallastown, Pennsylvania

Dark wanders through the landscape of theological inquiry with brilliance, taking us into uncharted valleys where questioning, confusion, doubt, and promise intermingle. This book is a call to action, a resounding yell of encouragement, to all types of Christians.
