Audiolibro Woven: A Faith for the Dissatisfied

When a white, middle-class, Christian, heterosexual, able-bodied man begins to question all of these cultural realities that he has been raised within, something is sure to give. The cultural fishbowl is sure to be cracked. WOVEN is such a story. The gradual awakening of a man to his gender, economic and racial privilege. It is the story of growing up within contemporary evangelicalism, the dissatisfaction that began to arise and the subsequent journey of self-discovery.

WOVEN is a story of dissatisfaction. A story of struggling and wrestling and questioning. It is the story of self-confrontation and institutional-deconstruction and spiritual-reformation. Woven is a naming of the realities we would prefer not to name, the owning up to our own bigotry and entitlement. It is a book that is sure to challenge both the conservative and the progressive, whilst also paving a way forward for all of us seeking to grow in our humanity and connectedness.
