FORMATPaperback CONDITIONBrand New Publisher Description

Unboxing God introduces us to a God who is bigger than we often think, a God who not only inspires wonder but who also invites questions. From the 4th Century to present day, theologians in the western church created numerous theological frameworks-or boxes-from which many of us were taught, even if we weren't brought up in the church. However, there is life outside of the box. And that is what we need to explore. Unboxing God mirrors the author's personal journey as he follows a bigger God, and finds a bigger faith, while remaining firmly grounded in the creeds of the early church.From sources including secular, Jewish, Orthodox, and evangelical, the book examines issues of reason and faith, who God is, and what the Bible is and where it came from. It is, as the subtitle indicates, a guide-a travelogue of sorts-through the broad Christian landscape.

Author Biography

Alden Swan spends a lot of his time thinking and drinking coffee, not necessarily in that order. Growing up on a small farm in northern Minnesota, he had the luxury of having plenty of time to wonder about God and church and life. That sense of wonder has remained with him.Raised Lutheran, he has spent much of his adult life in evangelical churches while never abandoning his more historic theological roots. He has devoted considerable time to Christian ministry, serving on church boards, teaching Bible studies, playing in worship bands, and always believing that God was bigger than the theological boxes that people constructed to house God. In the 1990s he started the Small Voices Journal, an early alternative online Christian magazine, exploring ideas about church and life. For many years he has blogged at aldenswan.com where he continues to express his thinking on a number of subjects. He co-authored The Gospel Uncensored with Ken Blue.Alden currently resides in Oregon with Jo, his wife of forty-one years. His favorite thing is to spend time with their three children and two grandchildren. He is very happily retired, which once again gives him ample time to think and write and drink too much coffee. On occasion he plays the banjo but will stop if you ask nicely.
