About the Program:

In his latest book, Reimagining Christianity, The Very Rev. Alan Jones paints a picture of Christianity as a religion of many images. Alan explains, "I want to recover religion as a work of the imagination, and the sense that God is the artist and poet of the world." The Publisher's Weekly review of the book points out, "This book is a winner, both charitable and bold." This is Alan's first appearance discussing the book upon its release.
