The Light in Our Eyes by Nicholas McDonald
4.5
super super awesome!
so much about why the american church is disillusioning so many people (especially young people), and how a truly Biblically-grounded faith fills those holes and gives us a cohesive and fulfilling narrative to counter the evangelical focus on escape. super helpful for where to point my students to as i meet with them and consider the ways the church has fallen short while also considering how the gospel is bigger than our evangelical upbringings indicated.
short half a star only because it sometimes tried a little too hard to be funny, or it had really long conversations just transcribed, or sometimes it leaned too hard on “my church is the best!” but those were really minor and didn’t take away from the message.
would highly recommend this book!
