Reviews
Publishers Weekly "A revealing window into a unique theological mind." "I have every confidence that on Tony Campolo's day of reckoning, the words 'good and faithful servant' will reverberate across the heavens. Pilgrim captures the wisdom, the wit, and the prophetic witness of one of our most consistent voices calling for faithfulness to the demands of the gospel." --Randall Balmer, John Phillips Professor in Religion, Dartmouth College; author of Bad Faith: Race and the Rise of the Religious Right "Other than the sweet Lord Jesus, I can't think of anyone who has shaped me spiritually more than Tony Campolo, and I'm not alone when I say that. Tony is one of the most influential Christians in North America during the past half century. Over the decades, Tony has shown us what authentic faith looks like, and his faith is contagious. Whether you're a longtime fan or just discovering Tony for the first time, you are in for a treat with this book, which is a gift to the church and to the world." --Shane Claiborne, cofounder of Red Letter Christians; author of Rethinking Life and The Irresistible Revolution: Living as anOrdinary Radical
