Do you have an opinion? There is an increasing tendency in Evangelical circles to regard disagreement in our allegedly post-modern world as inherently oppressive. Too many people sit on the fence and ignore, or are unaware of, the fact that Christianity is an historical religion. As Laurence Peter once said "History repeats itself because nobody listens." The point of having a debate is not to have a debate and then agree to differ (sitting around in a mutually affirming love-fest) - the point of debate, as the Apostle Paul clearly demonstrates time and again in the book of Acts, is to establish which position is best.Carl Trueman's intends to provoke you with this collection of essays into thinking for yourself and to have an opinion on THINGS THAT MATTER!

The content of Trueman's book is good. These are points that need to be made and he does a good job of making them and supporting them with reasoned evidence.

My one negative critique is that the book is not very readable. Despite endorsements to the contrary I find his style to be rather "ivory-tower academician-ish." I read a handful of the sentences to my wife out loud and by the end of the sentences we'd both forgotten what he said at the beginning. I wonder how well I would have been able to follow the book without rather extensive theological training.

Simply put: the content is good, but I don't enjoy reading books when the writing style, and not the content, is what makes them complicated. ( )
