Adventures in Missing the Point: How the Culture-Controlled Church Neutered the Gospel by Brian D. McLaren, Tony Campolo
4.0
Pros: Brian McLaren and Tony Campolo addressing current issues that cripple the church with suggestions for alternative ways of belief and action.
Lots of topics. Easy to read, and one doesn't have to read it in a linear fashion because each chapter is basically self-contained.
Cons: It seemed like the authors were mostly talking past each other, or they didn't have enough room to adequately address each other's concerns. Point-counterpoint format is good, but I'd like to see it as a point-counterpoint-countercounterpoint discussion.
Lots of topics, but that was part of the problem. Not so much depth.
Still, I'd recommend it as a good introduction to the many ways of re-envisioning Protestant Evangelical Christianity.
