Rewilding the Way: Break Free to Follow an Untamed God

Get a free chapter here.

When did we become so tame? How has “the good life” come to mean addiction to screens and status, fossil fuels and financial fitness? Can we break free to become the joyful and prophetic people God calls us to be? Trek along with wilderness guide Todd Wynward as he “rewilds” the Jesus Way. Seek the feral foundations of Scripture and the lessons that the prophets and disciples gleaned from wilderness testing.

Packed with inspiring stories of how contemporary people and groups are caring for the land and each other, Rewilding the Way issues a call to action. Read about how reskilling and local food covenants are transforming churches, and how place-based activism and creative housing are nurturing communities. Learn from those who are recovering from affluenza, replacing visions of personal wealth with the commonwealth of the earth and restoring their humble place in the community of creation. Do you despair about life on our changing planet? Join the hopeful band of seekers of God and makers of change who are rewilding the Way.

Watch an interview with author Todd Wynward:

Wilderness guide, author, and educator Todd Wynward has spent more than one thousand nights outdoors. The founder of a wilderness-based public charter school, Wynward lives with his wife and son in an intentional community in New Mexico. Richard Rohr calls Wynward's novel, The Secrets of Leaven, a spiritual roller-coaster that skewers everything we think we know about organized religion, social change, and human potential.
