For readers disenchanted with institutionalized religion and seeking a radical approach to faith, How to Die offers a profound weaving of reimagined biblical narrative, personal story, poetry, parables, and ancient creeds. With a passion for rekindling the spirit of discipleship, Pastor Joshua S. Porter offers:
• a unique blend of storytelling, liturgy, and practical spirituality that transcends traditional boundaries and engages with our modern challenges; • a gritty, realistic narrative of the Bible that helps us think about faith in a fresh way; • an unorthodox approach to capturing an orthodox vision for following Jesus.
How to Die serves as a provocative handbook for discipleship, inviting spiritually hungry readers to engage with the radical and transformative message of Christianity as they rediscover the subversive power of the gospel. In How to Die, Joshua Porter reimagines the Christian journey, blending biblical narrative and practical guidance to inspire a radical, authentic discipleship for today's fractured world. Joshua S. Porter, theologian and pastor at Van City Church (Vancouver, Washington) brings a dynamic blend of theological insight and cultural engagement to his writing. With a master's in biblical and theological studies from Western Seminary, Joshua has a dynamic approach to faith deeply rooted in theological study and cultural engagement. His journey from deconstruction to a renewed passion for authentic discipleship shapes this latest work, How to Die.
