May '05:
I absolutely love this book and highly recommend it to
anyone who wants their faith exposed, tried, tested, tormented,
and wrecked. Don't worry what this book is about...just
go buy it today. It will be a match to the dry forest
of your faith. |

June '05:
This book did for my view of the church what Blue Like
Jazz did for my understanding of the Way of Christ.
It streched, no actually it demolished my previous ecelsiastical
paradigms, forcing me to see the church as a missional
force and not merely a glorified club. |
