Customer Reviews

Small but Powerful

It is hard to believe that the first reviewer actually read "Foolish No More". It is more believable that he used this as a platform to push a personal agenda and philosophy - unfortunate, but not unheard of in today's environment. This book was worth the money and the time if you want to get a different perspective on Christianity; one that is true to the bible, but focuses principally on just one book, Galatians. It is in this book of the new testament where we can find a picture of how today's "church" is supposed to be - regardless of denomination. Those who follow Christ will be inspired and refreshed at a closer look what is my favorite book of the new testament. I will admit though, calling some of his insights "Haggardisms" didn't do anything for me. I would have preferred he put them in "call out" boxes or side bars and just called them "things to remember". But, if I've learned anything from the book, I know that such a thing means nothing in the grand scheme of who he is in Christ. Nevertheless, it's one man's opinion as it relates to writing style. Frankly, it's the only reason I give the book 4 stars instead of 5. If you find this work on grace refreshing, I would highly recommend "Messy Spirituality" by Mike Yaconelli as well. It is written in a similar vein, but I found it even more compelling...to the point that I read it a second time immediately after the first, because I was so disappointed it ended. Lastly, I was delighted and surprised at the ending of this book. Haggard spends the last pages talking about sex within marriage - but in this case doesn't call any of his insights "Haggardisms", while I found them as profound and as "right on" as any of his others - these last pages alone are worth the price of the book for anyone with a struggling marriage.
