 Thought-provoking October 30, 2008
Unchristian is a thought-provoking, valuable,intelligent, must-read for those Christians who have been in the church for a long time, in particular. I highly recommend it.
UnChristian by David Kinnamon October 28, 2008
UnChristian is a wake-up call to the typical church member who is wondering why their's church's congregation is dwindling and getting older. He uses factual observations to explain what church members are doing wrong and how we can reestablish a connection with the up and coming generations who will soon run society.
It is engaging and a quick read. He provides insight into the cultural phenomena of today's world.
Unchristian: What a New Generation Really Thinks.... October 24, 2008
This book is much needed for the Christian community if they want to be at all effective in reaching people and loving people of any generation. Often, overtly unloving behaviors have been unrecognized as such by deeming them as warnings or as right. This book gives a perspective of how outsiders view Christianity...and it is not pretty...but so very essential that Christians take a look at their own behaviors and attitudes, or they will miss the mark.
Grains of Truth AND Stumbling Blocks October 24, 2008
The research and ideas presented here are worth the time to consider by any Christian or church body. If we do not wake up to how others view Christians and the church and examine ourselves in the process, we will miss opportunities to share our greatest treasure with others and honor God. Rather than wrap ourselves in self-righteous smugness, we need to see ourselves as others see us, and then examine those views in light of the gospel, not take license to examine and judge others. If others' perceptions have only a grain of truth, and that gets in the way, then we need to let Christ's light and love change us so we can more honestly reflect him in the world. Don't let the grain of truth become a stumbling block to others.
Good Book October 23, 2008
I would recommend this book for anyone this is concerned about Christianity. The authors did a great job of pointing out the issues that The Church is facing in America. I know that I will take these issue to heart while working with the youth in my Church. Some of the issue that were addressed were hard to shallow, and I am guilty of the issues/concerns. "UnChristian" has show me that I must change my ways while dealing with indivdual that are not Christian. To be more Christlike, not humanlike.
