Peter Gomes, author of The Good Book:

“Borg is one of the very few New Testament scholars of our age whose learning is so lucid that it takes the Bible back from the specialists and makes it available in all its complexity and splendor to the general reader: nothing short of a blessing, even a miracle!  If Marcus Borg did not exist, we would have to invent him for we have no better guide to the recovery of an authentic Christian faith for these difficult times than this articulate and prolific public theologian.

Frederick Buechner, author of many books, including most recently Seeing with the Eyes of the Heart:

“Writing with a simplicity that never becomes simplistic, Borg manages to convey the essence of Christianity in a way that does justice to those who do not share his views and will greatly enrich the understanding of those who do.”

Karen Armstrong, author of best-sellers A History of God and The Battle for God:

“A marvelous book, The Heart of Christianity is both challenging and illuminating, and effecting exactly the kind of transformation that Borg describes so lucidly.”

Walter Brueggemann, author of more than thirty books on the Hebrew Bible:

“Marcus Borg is a key force in the emerging ‘new paradigm’ of Christian faith.”

Barbara Brown Taylor, priest, professor and preacher and author of many books, including Leaving Church and An Altar in the World:

“With great clarity and pastoral genius, Borg offers questioning Christians a way to keep their faith without shutting down the search for truth.”

Walter Wink, author of  Engaging the Powers, Jesus and Non-Violence, and many others:

“In every generation there is a handful of writers of whom it can be said, ‘Read everything they write.’  Marcus Borg is one of these today.”
