Butterflies in the Belfry -- Serpents in the Cellar: An Unintended Pursuit for a Natural Christianity (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780997759105)

In 1988 while working for a demanding Christian organization, Michael Jones moves his family to the Middle East to serve as missionaries to Muslims. Though Michael finds the Muslim people to be extremely hospitable, he discovers serious flaws within his own evangelical worldview. After a catastrophic collapse of faith, standing in middle of the post-evangelical wilderness, Michael contemplates possible paths out, including returning to agnosticism or even suicide. He takes the reader on an intimate yet intellectually enthralling journey through his personal history and the history of Western civilization. In the end, not only does he find the answers to his personal dilemma, but, inadvertently, he discovers a refreshing form of Christianity that has been forgotten. This book shares insights the author gained during front-line service amid the conflicts that arise when worldviews clash and presents his field-tested portrait of a raw, focused, and muscular Christianity.
