St. Patrick's Church

"Startlingly engaging, provocative, edifying and impossible to read without being challenged." - D L Spencer Brothers Use Pub Philosophy to Discuss Faith Danny and his brother, Sam, will drink to that! In fact, they will drink to almost anything in this daring novel that was nominated for the Young Australian Christian Writers' Award 2011. The two have just moved to the suburb of St. Patrick's, and although they have ties with the local Church, they discuss religion more thoroughly with the patrons at the nearby pub over a pint or three. Their lively discussions centre on Christian community, denominationalism, interfaith dialogue and tolerance, and End Times theology. Deep topics for this group of rogues who trespass on Parliament property, let loose wild animals at the zoo, get fired from their jobs as mall Santas and streak at the city's Christmas pageant. "Darren has taken some of today's liveliest debates about religion out of the pews and into the pub - and then put the pub and its characters into the pages of a work of fiction. An engaging and entertaining way to get to grips with much of the current ferment about theology and religion." - Rev.
