A Great Mental and Spiritual challenge
It's funny how something that seems to be stating the obvious can seem so new. It's also unique to have a book that so firmly kicks you out of your comfort zone, yet somehow makes the landing soft and the flight - dare I say?- fun. This book has my small group thinking and churning and I love the deer-in-headlights looks they get on their faces as they work through the material. Some ideas are ...

I'm speechless
Geez, I don't know what to say about this book. All I can say is, after reading this book, I: 1. Understand the Bible more; 2. Focus on Jesus more; 3. Love my neighbors more; 4. Understand suffering more; and 5. Want to walk in His ways daily! People who have read it and claimed that it's false teaching are apparently trying to nitpick! When we want to nitpick, we can do it ...

More Than I Thought
I may not be the most qualified reviewer of Rob Bell's new work "Sex God" provided the fact that I have only read the first half of the book. Moreover, I have limited exposure to Rob himself. While I have watched a couple of his NOOMA videos I have not read his first wrok, "Velvit Elvis." Nonetheless, this book is certainly captivating. From the on-set Bell demonstrates a command of his chosen ...

Velvet Elvis: Repainting the Christian Faith
Rob Bell

Zondervan, 2005

This is a book for those who know there's a God, who know that truth, beauty, design, and love come from somewhere, but they cannot stomach the current versions of God they find in local churches. They want a life of risk and movement and revolution, but are not finding it in the places they are looking.

Dissing Elizabeth: Negative Representations of Gloriana (Post-Contemporary Interventions)

3 reviews

Duke University Press, 1998

"Dissing" Clarifies "Blazoning"
This book puts a useful perspective on the cult of Elizabeth I. During her own reign (1568-1603) she was praised to her face for her brilliance and lauded in the courtly terms of the day, but certainly resented and "dissed" by the ambitious men she frustrated. Although numerous poets praised her, blazing her beauty, brilliance, and blessedness as God's Protestant champion, other men ...

Great for teaching little ones to read.
We got this out of the library for our 3-year-old, and he loved it so much he wanted to read it every night. He very quickly knew the story well enough that he was "reading" it himself on each page. We're buying this for him for Christmas, and I fully expect it to be one of the books that teaches him how to read. The repetition is great for that, and it enables us to read it in a silly way, and ...
