Learn moreIn this incendiary new work, the controversial author and speaker Peter Rollins proclaims that the Christian faith is not primarily concerned with questions regarding life after death but with the possibility of life before death. In order to unearth this truth, Rollins prescribes a radical and wholesale critique of contemporary Christianity that he calls pyro-theology. It is only as we submit our spiritual practices, religious rituals, and dogmatic affirmations to the flames of fearless interrogation that we come into contact with the reality that Christianity is in the business of transforming our world rather than offering a way of interpreting or escaping it. Belief in the Resurrection means but one thing: participation in an insurrection.
Peter Rollins is a widely sought-after writer, lecturer, storyteller, and public speaker both nationally and internationally. Rollins received his higher education in Queens University, Belfast, where he earned his BA, MA, and PhD. He is a research associate with the Irish School of Ecumenics in Trinity College, Dublin. He currently resides in Greenwich, Connecticut.

"In this book, Pete takes you to the edge of a cliff. And just when most writers would pull you back, he pushes you off. But after your initial panic, you realize that your fall is a form of flying. And it’s thrilling.”-Rob Bell, author of Love Wins and Velvet Elvis Expand reviews
