Publisher's Synopsis
The Book of Sammy is a bold, clear-eyed conversation about faith, truth, and the difference between Jesus and the religion built around him.
It's not a theology book. It's not trying to convert you. It's not selling anything - except maybe the idea that you're already worthy.
Written in short, poetic chapters, this book strips away the noise of modern Christianity - the politics, the performance, the shame - and gets back to what actually mattered to Jesus. Love. Liberation. Inner clarity. Justice for the poor. Truth that couldn't be owned or sold.
Sammy Doty isn't a pastor or theologian. He's an observer. A quiet thinker. Someone who's spent years wrestling with questions too many churches avoid:
- Would Jesus recognize the Christianity we practice today?
- Why do the most "religious" people often seem the least like Jesus?
From flipping tables to loving enemies, from warning about money to rejecting power, the Jesus in these pages doesn't sound like the one in political sermons or prosperity podcasts. He sounds like someone dangerous to empires - and deeply safe to the broken.
This book isn't written for scholars. It's for anyone who's ever felt out of place in church, unsure of what they believe, or too messy to be "spiritual."
It's for people who've been told to sit down and stay quiet - but couldn't ignore the whisper in their chest that said, "This can't be what Jesus meant."
If you're burnt out on performance, tired of pretending, or just hungry for something real - The Book of Sammy was written for you.
No dogma. No checklist. No fear.
Just an honest path toward freedom, with the questions left in.
