This was pretty interesting and not exactly what I expected. I thought it would be a personal memoir of McLaren's spiritual journey. It is more of an overview of different Christian sects and movements, a very brief historical explanation of why/how they came to exist, and the unique and positive points of view that they bring to Christianity.

For readers looking to learn more about the kind of spirituality that McLaren is pointing towards, check out Falling Upward by Richard Rohr.
