Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
- Grab your current read
- Open to a random page
- Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
- BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
- Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
My Teasers:
“We believe the Bible, not human tradition, is the divine guide for Christian faith and practice ~ including church practice. The Bible is not silent on how the church of Jesus Christ functions.”
~ p.262, “Pagan Christianity?: Exploring the Roots of Our Church Practices” by Frank Viola & George Barna
PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT with either the link to your own Teaser Tuesdays post, or share your 2 ‘teasers’ in a comment here (if you don’t have a blog). Thanks!

How true!! Here is my teaser.
November 3, 2009 at 9:30 am
Two teasers from me this week!
November 3, 2009 at 9:36 am
Sounds like an interesting book – I like the thought of discovering which practices are descended from pagan rituals.
My teaser is from Lise Haines’ Girl in the Arena.

Wow that is a great teaser! I am going to visit your review on the book after leaving my teaser link. It looks like it could be a really good and thought provoking book.
My teaser is here. It is from Janet Evanovich’s book Full House. Seems to be a funny fiction book which is always good at my house.

I’m up, enjoying a different kind of book than I usually read:)
November 3, 2009 at 3:13 pm
I’ll echo the others in saying that “Pagan Christianity?” is an interesting title. Sounds like a sociological perspective on religion practice. I might have to check it out.
Here is my teaser: http://aliteratus.blogspot.com/2009/11/teaser-tuesday-once-again-to-zelda.html

It would be hard to see someone giving their book a title like “Pagan Christianity” without having some kind of agenda in place.
My teaser this week is in keeping with the past few, and from the screenplay for “Four Wedding And A Funeral” – here.
November 3, 2009 at 3:28 pm
Sounds like an interesting book.
Mine’s up, too.
http://carolsnotebook.wordpress.com/2009/11/03/teaser-tuesday-33/
November 3, 2009 at 3:32 pm
I would agree–thought provoking teaser today. My teaser is full of highschool drama. If you want to wander down my road I’m home.
November 3, 2009 at 3:32 pm
That is an interesting teaser. I think the RC Church may sometimes forget their roots.
Here’s my teaser
November 3, 2009 at 3:33 pm
Wow, I thought I got here early today! So many great teasers to look at!
Your teaser fascinates me MizB. I think the history behind most religions is really interesting.
This is a great teaser, thenk you!

My teaser is up now, not just the frame for it.
I really need to remember to start looking at these Monday night before bed instead of waiting for Tuesday morning…

Interesting! My teaser actually has something to do with the Church as well, and it gives a bit of insight to Cardinal Wolsey’s character. Mine is from Hilary Mantel’s Wolf Hall:
