A former Rhodes scholar and professor of New Testament studies at Wycliffe College, Toronto, Tom Harpur is also an Anglican priest. He resigned from parish work in 1979 to write full-time in the mass media, in the process extending his “parish” to the whole of Canada. His work in newspapers, television, and his books, notably For Christ’s Sake and Life After Death, have consolidated his reputation as one of Canada’s pre-eminent religious voices and as a sound spiritual guide for modern times.
“If Harpur’s research and reasoning was the stuff of which sermons
were made and honestly presented from the pulpit, churches wouldn’t
be empty.”
–Roy Bonisteel, Toronto Star
“A wonderful book, extremely positive.”
–Dr. Harvey Cox, Dean of Divinity, Harvard University
“For Christ’s Sake is Harpur at his finest. It is articulate and
hard-hitting…a timely and important challenge for the Church in
this increasingly secularized world.”
–The Anglican
