Quick Uplifting Read

LOVED this book, so much I bought it for three of my best friends. Read it the first time on a plane, and tried not to completely start crying for joy. So Good!


Dinner witha Perfect Stranger: An Invitation Worth Considering

This book was very moving. It gave one a new perspective in having so Great a Guest present in your own home. It makes this "stranger" so warm,loving and accepting. It has an everlasting effect on how one perceives oneself. Very worthwhile read

Wonderful Book and Great Witnessing Tool

I read this book in an hour flat - I couldn't put it down. It really expresses who Jesus really is - God who wants a personal relationship with each of his children. I loved the small discussion about other religions. I've given this book away as a "good, quick read" in order to break the ice for witnessing.

"Mere Christianity" for the 21st Century

Received a copy of Dinner with a Perfect Stranger as a freebie at the International Christian Retailers Show last summer and it immediately became my personal Book of the Year. Bought copies for friends. A classic, it is "Mere Christianity" for the 21st century--a readable, amazingly insightful handbook for friendship evangelism. And what a Friend! Gregory's portrayal of Jesus Christ, as he would be if he were sitting across the table at dinner with us, reveals him as a man of tremendous compassion who speaks truth so matter-of-factly, succinctly and powerfully, it blows one away. Every one of those Big Questions confronted head-on and nailed with a one-sentence answer that leaves one slack-jawed: Objection resolved! until one, convinced can say only, No more questions, M'Lord. Where do I sign up? (although I have to admit my deist brother thought Jesus arrogant).

This book and its successor, A Day with a Perfect Stranger, deserve far more publicity than they have been getting. There is even a movie, every bit as good and even more immediate than the books--but I had to come across it at random in a bin of discounted DVDs at Blockbuster. Drew tears from both my husband and myself. For me, it ranks up there with The L, The W and the W (Chronicles of Narnia) as Movie of 2006.

Thank you, David Gregory, for The Perfect Stranger books/DVD and thank you, Lord, for David Gregory!

Basic, solid, provocative

The book and companion movie are a basic but powerful introduction to Christianity without lots of religous words. It answers age old questions in a simple, straightforward, and provactive way. A great introduction to someone who has some interest in religious ideas but still has lots of questions.
