5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful little book!, 22 Aug 2009
By Dr N Cooper (Leeds, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Chrysalis is a book that describes the normal faith journey that many Christians go on, but few understand.
Some people reading this book won't necessarily "get it", but basically Alan Jamieson (minister and sociologist) brings together research, scripture and some of the early church fathers' writings in describing how Christian faith matures and changes over time.
He uses the Monarch butterfly's life cycle as an analogy (hence the title chrysalis). His description is wonderfully validating for people who are struggling in congregation bubbles that don't get them; and this book should be compulsory reading for ministers/pastors.
Highly recommended!

4.0 out of 5 stars Where is Christian faith going?, 10 Aug 2009
An interesting and helpful approach to ideas of faith development and churches as places to nourish those who are emerging from the chrysalis of doubt and loss of faith, to look for new ways of living with God.
Only criticism is that it is rather fragmented in later chapters - reads as if several disparate articles have been not entirely successfully edited together to make chapters.
That said, coming from a New Zealand post evangelical Anglican perspective and a publisher which has been historically on the conservative side, it is an interesting book. Well worth a read.
