| So You Don't Want to Go to Church Anymore by Windblown Media Best Book in 35 years |
| In thirty five years of being a Christian, this is the first book I've come across that speaks to my frustation with "church" and it's inability to deliever what it promises. As I've read the gospels over the years, I've realized that if you made a list of all the things that Jesus told His followers He wanted then to do, and made another list of what the "church" does; you would find little if anything on both lists in most churches, mine included. This book has put words to the troubled rumblings of my heart and shown me that yes, you can find Jesus outside the "church" as we have come to know it in America today. In fact, if the gospels are any indication, more likely. |
| So You Don't Want to Go to Church Anymore by Windblown Media Well-satisfied buyer |
| I was pleasantly surprised that there was no typical "church-bashing", but the book was filled with a sense of how much our Heavenly Father seeks to have meaningful relationship with us, His children. It revealed that the organization of the "church" can take on a life in itself, totally apart from being the "body and bride" of Christ. It certainly pointed me toward the Father. |
| So You Don't Want to Go to Church Anymore by Windblown Media Very good, encouraging. |
| This book really helped look at spiritual matters, instead of just church issues. It also was a big help in dealing with issues in the church that can be painful. I do think the book goes just a tad too far in basically encouraging people that they do not need to go to church regularly, and in fact says the Bible does not tell us to do so. I clearly feel the Bible does tell us to congregate together. Most people would not have the opportunity to keep up regular contact with fellow christians (as he did) if they did not go to church. That is my only negative about this book. Mainly I found it to be very encouraging, and spiritually uplifting. A very good book. |
