Shane Claiborne is a founding member of The Simple Way faith community in Philadelphia, PA and author of The Irresistible Revolution: Living as an Ordinary Radical. Shane Claiborne is an original voice, a creative spirit, in a gathering movement of young people known as the "new monastics." With virtues like simplicity and imagination, they are engaging great contradictions of our culture - beginning with the gap between the churches they were raised in, the needs of the poor, and the "loneliness" they find in our culture's vision of adulthood.(Bio dated 2010)
