Summary
"I came late to Christianity", writes Sara Miles, "knocked upside down by a mid-life conversion centered around eating a literal chunk of bread. I hadn't decided to profess an article of doctrine, but discovered a force blowing uncontrollably through the world."
In this book, Sara Miles tells what happened when she decided to follow the flesh and blood Jesus by doing something real. For everyone afraid to feed hungry strangers, love the unlovable, or go to dark places to bless and heal, she offers hope. She holds out the promise of a God who gave a bunch of housewives and fishermen authority to forgive sins and raise the dead, and who continues to call us to action. And she tells, in vivid, heartbreakingly honest stories, how the ordinary people around her are transformed by taking up God's work in the world.
Sara Miles offers a fresh, fully embodied faith that sweeps away the anxious formulas of religion to reveal the scandalous power of eating with sinners, embracing the unclean, and loving the wrong people. Jesus Freak: Feeding Healing Raising the Dead is her inspiring book for undomesticated Christians who still believe, as she writes, "that Jesus has given us the power to be Jesus."

Unconventional look at Christianity
Interesting & very unconventional look at fringe Christianity or Christianity for outcasts by outcasts according to Jesus. It challenges the norm of what traditional Christianity mandates. They basically put Jesus’ words into practice & this was what tethered me to actually finish this book. As much as I’ve gained from books that highlight fasting, signs, miracles, the power of Holy Spirit, & building a personal relationship with Jesus; this isn’t that kind of book. This book centres mostly on displaying practical love to those some would consider ‘untouchables’ (social, economic, health lepers).
