Quarantine-Book # I just finished "Fall to Grace: A Revolution of God, Self and Society," by Jay Bakker. Bakker runs through a bit of his family history to add context for those who didn't watch TV in the 80's. Jim and Tammy were his parents, the ministry crushed, the marriage destroyed, his father in prison. Interlacing anecdotes with exegesis of Paul's letters (especially Galatians), Bakker shares stories of those who have experienced a three-part revolution of grace. Living with grace transforms God from harsh rule maker to loving abba (daddy), reorients individuals away from self-centeredness, and remakes society. His test for this final revolution is his call for acceptance of homosexuals, a position that he says grace demands.
