It is the courageous critique of the present and its claims of immutability.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHearlson draws widely from Christian history to uncover ways the church has used its traditional practices--preaching, music, sacrament, and art--to sabotage oppressive structures of the world for the sake of the gospel. He tells the stories of particular subversive strategies both past and present, including radical hospitality, genre bending, coded speech, and apocalyptic visions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlending history, theory, and practice, \u003ci\u003eThe Holy No \u003c\/i\u003eis both a testament to the courage of Christians who came before and an encouragement to take up their mantle of faithful subversion. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Adam Hearlson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0802873855\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780802873859\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e William B.
