I don't know what it is about this guy but...........

Every time i hear him talk, it seems like deep inside me i feel he is correct on many things.

Especially on the subject of Jesus, and the kingdom mind set. Most Christians are missing. Not that it's a salvation Issue,but it seems like a key to the future of Christianity.

spot on! we cannot get the world right. in the rhetoric of perception we get lost in the view of it .

Yes. It's like Francis Schaeffer (of blessed memory) used to say: we've heard the Jesus story over and over again so many times, with our own prejudiced set of post-Christian headphones on, that we can't really hear it at all. Schaeffer suggested that we "smash the record" (or the CD, if you will), and Wright gives us a "remixed" CD and new headphones so we can hear the gospel as brand new.
