About the Book

Everyday actions work to transform life personally and in community It's all too common for Christians to wonder, if Jesus came to bring transformation and wholeness, why do I still feel like the same old me and struggle with the same issues as always? Paul Fromberg, rector of St. Gregory of Nyssa Episcopal Church in San Francisco, offers a practical approach to life transformation that proves that church, if done right, can be the catalyst for bringing about real change in people's lives. For those frustrated that they haven't had real experiences of transformation in their churches and for church leaders who are frustrated that members aren't being transformed by their experiences in church. Fromberg presents a way to move beyond cynicism, sadness, and alienation and reconnect with the deep, passionate, beautiful life that God has in mind for us. The first step is to question assumptions, but it takes relationships to make this change and courage to risk what you know for the sake of being made new. The intersection between beauty, justice, and friendship is the place where people can dare to be transformed. The best gift the church can give is to make transformation a real part of people's lives.

Review :
"The Art of Transformation will introduce you to a gifted writer, a profound message, and a truly beautiful congregation. And if you let it, it will inspire you to practice the art of transformation wherever you are." —Brian D. McLaren, author/speaker/activist "Challenging, thoughtful, and inviting, Fromberg speaks to the tenderness, harmony, and messy beauty of spiritual transformation in community. Inhale this book deeply and discover your own beauty, which can only be found in a life animated by community." —The Rt. Rev. C. Andrew Doyle, D.D. Bishop, Episcopal Diocese of Texas "In this beautiful book, full of compassion and humanity, Paul Fromberg invites us to practice the art of transformation through beauty, art, story, worship, engagement with others, and friendship, and to embrace a relationship with God who 'delights in our striving to be made new.'" —Jane Shaw, Dean for Religious Life and Professor of Religious Studies, Stanford University
