World Remade: A Spiritual Companion for the Betrayed, Disillusioned, and Plain Old Fed Up
Ebook
Being fed up with the church is not the same as walking away from God. World Remade bears witness with hearts wounded by the unfaithfulness of our churches. It comes alongside those dissatisfied with the dissonance between Jesus' teachings and the ways Christian leaders prioritize money, power, and politics. This is a book for the betrayed, the disillusioned, the worn out, and the fed up who can't shake the sense that God still calls them.
In World Remade, Larson offers a window into a faith challenged by a seminary education and fractured by the failures of a self-absorbed church. As frustration gives way to cynicism, he is met by a God who knows us in our darkness and who holds all creation together even when we ourselves are shattered.
“Through reflections, poems, and sermons, Brice Larson shares his journey through life’s challenges and beautifully opens his reader to the discovery of God’s shalom on earth and hope for things to come. A refreshing and honest read that helps reorient the fellow sojourner toward rootedness in God’s way in the world in the midst of the fray.”
—Nell Becker Sweeden, associate professor of Christian theology, Nazarene Theological Seminary
“Brice Larson was a seminary student of mine—yes, that experience that proved so fracturing. Recently, I’ve had the pleasure of reconnecting with him. Brice was, and remains, a very good writer, fearless in the face of paradox. In this collection, Brice offers a delicious taster of his writing, each morsel prepared with self-awareness, prophetic insight, and a mysterious hope for what can be. Relish each bite.”
—Daniel L. Brunner, professor emeritus of Christian history and formation, Portland Seminary
“There is a creative beauty, vulnerability, and gentle hopefulness in how Brice Larson writes this memoir and poetic reflection. I suspect that you will find yourself understood, comforted, and, at times, challenged as you read World Remade. For those who wrestle with faith, church, brokenness, and what God might be up to in it all, this book will be a meaningful resource as you journey along.”
—Cody Whittington, lead pastor, The Table Community Church
