Why Being Yourself Is a Bad Idea: And Other Countercultural Notions
Most people just want to be happy and to make a difference in the world.
We're often told we'll achieve this by being ourselves.
But when we begin to reflect, that's not quite as simple as it sounds. All sorts of questions and countercultural notions arise. Maybe trying to 'be yourself' is not such a good idea after all?
This book dares us to let go of some of the assumptions we make about life. Drawing on current research, contemporary events and ancient wisdom, it offers an invitation to journey to places we may never have imagined before. It vividly reveals how the revolution that Christianity began can still make remarkable sense of our experience of wonder, love, evil, justice, identity and freedom.
'Intriguing and provocative, speaking to our deepest concerns and heaviest questions.'
James Mumford, author of Vexed: Ethics beyond political tribes
'I kept saying "YES " as I turned the pages of this book.'
Pete Greig, author of How to Pray
