OtherWise Christian 2: Stories of Resistance

While Liam’s chapter in OtherWise Christian 2 does not specifically unpack his journey from Christianity into Judaism, I walked away from it with a profoundly deeper understanding of the Jewish Sabbath and Shabbat service, as well as Liam’s life journey writ large. Liam is also working on a full-length book project (called Trans-Forming Proclamation) with OtherWise Engaged Publishing, so we are excited about even more to come!
