Synopsis:

"It's not Jesus I can't stand, it's the church."Ask anyone today for their perspective on Christianity and chances are you'll hear a statement like this.  The hurt caused by the Church is epidemic.  But what about Jesus?  For those who haven't given up on following Him, is there a way to survive the hurt caused by churches and still follow a Savior who promises hope and grace for all people? Wonky is for those who may have given up on Jesus because of Christians.  This is a survival guide for those who long to encounter Jesus despite the faults of organized religion.  Wonky is an honest walk through the halls of our churches naming the flaws and faults and still capturing some of the wonder that exists when Jesus is truly at the center of a community of believers.Dr. Justin Bowers is a pastor, teacher, dreamer, and creative agitator.  Serving as the Lead Pastor of New Community, a tribe of believers following Jesus beyond Sundays,  Justin and his wife Carrie and their four daughters love roaming the hills of West Virginia and dreaming about what the Kingdom of God looks like when it's made real in every area of life.
