I think the premise of this book is really good. The execution just wasn’t quite what I was looking for. As far as I could tell, the theology in this book is sound and correct and rooted in canonical Bible Scripture.
However, some of the arguments weren’t particularly strong or as logical as they could have been. I felt like the author was taking some leaps to connect certain ideas that didn’t seem to have that strong of a connection, and then was grasping at straws to prove the point without much solid evidence. I was looking for more logic and fewer emotional appeals.
Maybe I’m just being too picky, but I also felt like the author spent too long explaining details that are not that important to the general argument, and exploring rabbit trails that didn’t lead anywhere meaningful. The writing could have been condensed.
