Stetzer covers quite a bit of ground here, focusing primarily on our attitudes and how our reactions and speech are a product of our worldview and love for Jesus. He specifically talks about how we conduct ourselves on the internet, but I appreciated that toward the end of the book, he also mentions that we need to be neighborly and loving in our "real" lives and, especially, connected with a local Church congregation.
I thought he could have done a better job on a few things:
- The discussion of nominal believers vs real Christians was necessary, but a bit long, and since it was toward the beginning of the book, it set a negative tone.
- He says at one point that if our various "systems" (church, political, other) require us to work to maintain them, we're following the wrong god... then later talks about how God created us to work. I understand the argument of grace vs works, but he didn't connect this very well.
- He's quite critical of those who choose to remain "silent" on certain moral/political issues, but also talks about needing discernment to know when to jump into a conversation (especially online) and when to stay out of it; I think many people (especially introverts) who are wisely refraining from getting wrapped up in unproductive debates will feel chided, unnecessarily. And he never really mentions that just not joining in a particular conversation on Facebook, for example, is not the same thing as remaining entirely "silent" on an issue.
- He gave away the ending of a book I haven't read yet. ([b:Frankenstein|35031085|Frankenstein The 1818 Text|Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1498841231l/35031085._SY75_.jpg|4836639]) I hate it when authors include spoilers, as if everyone has read all the same books they have. So frustrating!
Also, it's a bit long.
As I said, it's a great book overall, but there are these minor things that detract from it. So read it with discernment, the way we should read all books. :)… (mer)
