John Dominic Crossan 
A Long Way from Tipperary [PDF ebook] 
What a Former Irish Monk Discovered in His Search for the Truth

Support
From his boyhood in Tipperary, Kildare, and Donegal to the pinnacle of biblical scholarship, John Dominic Crossan’s adventurous spirit has led him to seek out the truth no matter where it leads. In this delightful memoir, the former monk and controversial biblical scholar tells how his work as a pioneering historical Jesus expert has led him from the traditional Catholicism of his youth to a more complex, sophisticated faith. With characteristic wit and candor, he describes the joys and challenges of growing up in Ireland and reveals how his life experiences–from Ireland to America, Rome, and Israel, from monastery to university, from priesthood to marriage–have shaped his understanding of God, Jesus, the Church, and what it means to be a true Christian.
