CUSTOMER REVIEWS (Average Customer Rating: 4.0 based on 66 reviews)

Frank, honest, and sobering  
This book shares a scienitific based review of how the unchurched view mainstream Christianity. Though frank and sobering, the results will not be surprising to most Christians. Rather than reflect God's love, Christians all too often reflect judgementalism. I took the book to heart and will try to be mindful of the way that I image God and the church to the world. It is a "must read" for every Christian who deals with everyday people, especially for Christians who live in larger metropolitan cities or college towns.

Great Book But Not the Whole Story  
This is a great book, but it's not complete.

The book does a wonderful job of showing why Christians look unattractive in the eyes of those who are not part of the faith. To complete the picture, I would recommend George Barna's excellent books "Revolution" and "Pagan Christianity"?

These two books explain why most churches are unattractive to both Christians and non Christians alike, and ("Pagan Christianity" especially) gives a great deal of historical evidence for why this is the case.

Didn't Read It  
I agree that the church has to change but can someone please tell me why we (the church) should go to the "world" and ask the "world" what the church of Jesus Christ should look like?

A must read for all  
This is one of the most impacting books of our day. Every Christian should look at this closely. Jesus and Paul understood well the culture they lived in. We will do our selves a huge favor to understand the culture that we live in today.
