Cover Story
When George Barna and I released Pagan Christianity last year, some of the critics of the book (most of whom had never read it) accused us of not loving the church, but hating her. Ironically, we addressed this very point all throughout the book, stating that we were writing the book precisely *because* we love the church and no longer want to see her hindered (at best) or sabotaged (at worst) by a human-invented system that has often smothered her personality and robbed her freedom.
