Way Collective is so excited to welcome back acclaimed author, speaker, and activist Brian McLaren for a special intimate event in Santa Barbara.

His most recent book asks a timely question: Do I Stay Christian?

In this guide for the doubters, the disappointed, and the disillusioned, Brian addresses in public the powerful question that surprising numbers of people―including pastors, priests, and other religious leaders―are asking in private.

Picking up where Faith After Doubt leaves off, Do I Stay Christian? is not McLaren's attempt to persuade Christians to dig in their heels or run for the exit. Instead, he combines his own experience with that of thousands of people who have confided in him over the years to help readers make a responsible, honest, ethical decision about their religious identity.

There is a way to say both yes and no to the question of staying Christian, McLaren says, by shifting the focus from whether we stay Christian to how we stay human. If Do I Stay Christian? is the question you're asking―or if it's a question that someone you love is asking―you won't want to miss this evening of conversation!

Join us for an evening with Brian as he explores these themes, and dialogues in a Q&R with the audience.

This event is hosted by Way Collective, a contemplative community for love and liberation in Santa Barbara that gathers weekly for dinner, contemplation, and conversation. Check out our site and keep up with us!
