The unclothed:) anabaptist

I just finished reading The Naked Anabaptist: The Bare Essentials of a Radical Faith.  It was a thought-provoking read.  Here are some links to give you an idea what the book is about.  If you are:
-Mennonite
-attending a Mennonite church
-avoiding Mennonites
-attracted to the core of following Jesus but don't like religion or church
-wondering about God

THEN - this book just might resonate with you.
I found it challenging and encouraging as one who is or was all of the above at some point.  Stuart Murray does a good job of identifying what they have found to be the helpful things in Anabaptism, while being honestly critical of lessons to learn or things to avoid.  This is a book I will need to read again.
