But Jesus describes the reign of God as a house with many rooms\, writes Debie Thomas\, one of the most auspicious voices in religious writing today. In this work of sprawling spiritual and literary imagination\, Thomas claims that wherever God dwells\, there is expansiveness and belonging. \n\n\n\nThomas knows what a cramped faith feels like\, what it’s like to wrestle your way out of fundamentalism and toward a more capacious faith. From the diasporic church in which she grew up\, to the disorientations of a deconstructing faith\, to an ample yet orthodox Christianity that makes room for all her identities\, Thomas takes listeners on a deeply personal and profoundly theological odyssey. In A Faith of Many Rooms\, she talks back to jaundiced versions of faith and finds evidence that the gospel insists on its own roominess. \n\n\n\nThe kind of God who decided to experience the world as a guest likely feels constrained by our pinched theologies too. What sorts of ruptures and revisions would it take to find a more spacious faith—and then to inhabit it with authenticity and joy? Fans of Christian Wiman\, Cole Arthur Riley\, and Barbara Brown Taylor will find in this book an ardent\, lyrical take on a faith transfigured.
