HarperCollins Here I Stand
<I>Here I Stand</I> is the autobiography of John Shelby Spong, the Episcopal bishop who is a lightning rod for controversy. Spong has for decades been working to popularise an inclusive version of Christianity that avoids racism, sexism and homophobia; as a result, he has engaged leading conservatives (such as Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson) in very public conflicts. <I>Here I Stand</I>, predictably, gives a blow-by-blow account of Spong's high-profile battles. More surprisingly, Spong also shares some very intimate details about his life that help to explain the sources of his theology. His southern childhood is related in a manner that is every bit as painful and comic as a Flannery O'Connor story. And the story of his first marriage, to a woman whose mental illness persisted for 15 years, is handled with sensitivity and grace. Despite his occasional rhetorical excesses, Spong's book is clearly written in love--with God, with the Church and with the world. I walk inside the wonder of this God in every experience of life, he writes at the book's end. We are fortunate that Spong's autobiography so expertly conveys this wonder. --<I>Christine Buttery</I>
