joshknape 's review for:

The Stranger on the Road to Emmaus by John R. Cross

---

I like this book as an introduction to Christianity. There's no good reason to snub an introduction just because you've been born again for seventeen years already. A refresher is always useful. Despite that I disagree with the author on certain small and fairly inconsequential details. Essentially, he's too willing to make unwarranted assumptions. For instance, he assumes that Noah took dinosaurs aboard the ark whereas the Bible doesn't specify that; and he assumes that when the serpent tempted Eve, Adam was standing right there listening.

There's a reason that my church asks people to read this book before officially joining.
