Noted Christian commentator Paul Dordal leads us on an exciting journey to discover true freedom in Christ. The political theory of anarchism is grossly misunderstood by the majority of Americans. But when anarchism’s positive nature is revealed in concert with the teachings of Jesus, new spiritual growth opportunities are opened up and radical life change becomes possible. "In Search of Jesus the Anarchist" explores the intersection of libertarian socialist (or anarchist) political theory and the core teachings of Christianity. Viewing Christian faith through the lens of anarchist theory opens up a new way forward beyond the liberal or conservative controversies which have severely damaged the credibility of traditional Christianity. Christian anarchism is an inclusive way forward for the Church in a post-Christian age. Not a new theology, denomination, or faith, Christian anarchism is simply a means to experience the fullness of the Spirit through faith in Jesus. It is a mystical spirituality practiced in a revolutionary way to “liberate the oppressed, set the imprisoned free, and open the eyes of the blind.”
