The Heart of Christianity by Marcus J. BorgI almost put this book down after only 32 pages. Borg tries to get you to deconstruct & redo your thinking about major foundations of the Christian faith. But, to suggest changing your thoughts about key points like God and the Bible is just pushing it too far, in my opinion.
I originally picked up this book because I'd heard that Borg was deeply entrenched in the "emerging church" conversation, and I had to see for myself. Now I'm convinced.
There were a few good points/truths that I took from the book, so it wasn't a complete waste of my time. But, overall, it's not a book that I'd recommend to anyone.

Hi I'm setting up a blog tour for Susan May Warren and she requested since you've featured her in the past that I ask you again if you're willing to blog about her next book... only I can't find your email addy. If you're interested contact me at heatherdianetipton (at) gmail.com
