Blue Like Jazz: Nonreligious Thoughts on Christian Spirituality by Donald Miller

4.0

---

This book was eye-opening. Miller takes a look at Christianity from the viewpoint of a non-believer. I truly believe every Christian should learn to view Christianity from a skeptic's perspective in order to better understand how to reach the lost. There is a negative stereotype of Christians, and this book not only helps break those stereotypes but also offers ways for us to improve how the world views us. For me there were parts that I didn't agree with. For example, I believe some of his views are a little simple (such as just wanted church and Jesus to seem a little more "cool"). MIller admits, however, to being slightly immature, and some parts of the book confirms that confession. No matter how immature Miller may be, his book is still a must-read for all Christians.
