Making Friends With the Bible

Rating:
Summary: An insightful and practical guide
Review: The authors provide an insightful and practical guide to what can often be difficult and intimidating territory. I particularly appreciate the last section by Rev. Louis Kilgore, which is a personal account from his journal of how he approaches the Bible, even as a practicing theologian. His voice is authentic and sympathetic, and watching him unravel the text before your eyes brings it alive, not just for him, but for the reader as well. I would have like to have seen more of his voice threaded throughout the book; his contribution is small, but makes the rest of this solid book all the more worthwhile. Highly recommended.
