Reviews

[Jessi Thompson · Rating 5 out of 5]

I love the scripture in the book and I love how it explains the scripture. All in all a very short read, but a really good read!

[Angie Pierce · Rating 4 out of 5]

I think that anyone who loudly and vocally proclaims that they are a Christian should read this book and reflect upon the sentiments found in it. The bottom line is that unless you are living the life described in this book you have a lot to learn about being a Christian. My favorite sentence in the book speaks of Jesus in this manner - "His unique teaching cut through the facade of religion like a sharp knife through warm butter." I think that our nation needs to do the same. Leave religion behind and focus on living the life that Jesus taught us.
