Like Jesus: Shattering Our False Images of the Real… af Jamie Snyder
Easy to read, and it zeroed in on some idiosyncrasies of mine. Review forthcoming on Jesus in Books.
This review was written for LibraryThing Early Reviewers.Not the greatest book I've read. Very light in content and somewhat pithy at times. It lacked flow. Idleman's intro was great, but this book seems to be lacking...
This review was written for LibraryThing Early Reviewers.This book is good for Christians who like:
Lists.
Adjectives.
Short Sentences.
Easy Reading.
The book asks a great question that has kept my thinking (Would anyone know I am a Christian if Sundays didn't exist?), but the meat of the book is weak. The ARC I received feels like a draft and not a finished piece. And with the number of one word lines it feels like they were attempting to stretch it out to make it seem like the idea could possibly be book length. I know it is the trend right now for Pastors to write books, but maybe, just maybe not every pastor is cut out to be a writer. If you want to be challenged by these same ideas by a good writer try out Mark Scandrette. "Practicing the Way of Jesus" and "Free" are ten thousand times better than "Real."… (mere)

This review was written for LibraryThing Early Reviewers.I got this book in exchange for a review. This book is not difficult to read and it is basically a series of meditations. The basic premise is to challenge the church pew christian to be a "real" christian whose beliefs are evident and impactful to all. I found the book a bit unhelpful in that it asked a lot of questions but didn't provide any guidance or suggestions to what the answers would look like. The questions were good but it left me hanging with no place to go.
