Crazy Christians

About this book

As has been true throughout Christianity the faithful need to be ready to respond to challenging times and contexts. In this creative and lively book, Episcopal Bishop Michael Curry offers us refreshing reflections on how to be “crazy” to the world by acting faithful to God. Crazy Christians is based on Bp. Curry s 2012 General Convention homily and video that went viral on the web. It includes the acclaimed 2012 General Convention address “We need some Christians who are as crazy as the Lord. Crazy enough to love like Jesus, to give like Jesus, to forgive like Jesus, to do justice, love mercy, walk humbly with God, like Jesus. Crazy enough to dare to change the world from the nightmare it often is into something close to the dream that God dreams for it. And for those who would follow him, those who would be his disciples, those who would live as and be the people of the Way? It might come as a shock, but they are called to craziness.” (Publisher).
