A review by sarahannkateri
The Orthodox Heretic And Other Impossible Tales by Peter Rollins

4.0

The four stars don't include the introduction, which I did not like at all. The author came off as incredibly arrogant - I don't take kindly to being told "this is a great book, and you must read it in this particular way or else you will be unable to properly appreciate its greatness." It's especially ironic given that several of the parables deal with the inherent uncertainty of Christianity, notably summed up by the last line of the book: "we humbly admit that we are in the dark, but still endeavor to live in the way of Christ as best we can."

That caveat aside, the parables were thought-provoking and Rollins' view is an interesting way to look at Christianity.
