Only thing interesting is the title

Revisado: 02-10-15

What disappointed you about The Lamb and the Fuhrer?

Typical notions of judgement used...a courtroom (how dull). The Jesus narrator was awful. Way overdid the Christian lecturing. I know that 1+1 = 2.

Would you ever listen to anything by Ravi Zacharias again?

I think I am done. This was book 2.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

In many ways. The Jesus narrator sounded like a boy and Hitler was a man, so it was like a boy lecturing to man...The whole first chapter (scene) stank of Job's friends...if you know what I mean.

Any additional comments?

I am not a fan of lecturing of this type, which at it's core is ALL this book is. It is not an exploration of Hitler and Jesus discussions. it is just rehashing the author's interpretations of the Bible. I realize anyhow who would speculate on their conversation might be incorrect, but that is why I read books. I want an author to think of this (that is truly creative). If I wanted to read the Bible, I would just do that.

Well done, but mixed bag of performances

Revisado: 01-18-15

Any additional comments?

Biggest complaint: Jesus. Understand that being the narrator for Jesus is a tall order for anyone, that said, I found the performance to be forced, slightly whiny, and unappealing.

Biggest compliment: The voice of Job was outstanding.

What's wrong with beer?

Revisado: 05-13-13

Would you try another book from Max Lucado and/or Wayne Shepherd?

Yes

How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?

A little less retelling of Bible stories...I don't buy a book to hear it retell another (even if it is the Bible)

Any additional comments?

I don't understand the authors whole section on driking beer. I understand that he felt hiding it was wrong, but personally if you aren't getting drunk, what exactly is the sin there? Just don't hide driking a beer, there is nothing wrong with it (Paul and Jesus drank wine afterall!...I don't believe beer was availabe in that era, or perhaps they'd be having a beer too!). Anyhow, either way, the section on this was long and distracting and was't the best story to make a point.

Good Rob Bell book, but not a Love Wins

Revisado: 03-22-13

Any additional comments?

I liked the book, but it isn't at all a Love Wins book. Rob seems a little uninterested during his reading of the book at times.

I love logic...but this is depressing logic

Revisado: 03-22-13

Would you try another book from Peter Rollins and/or Peter Rollins?

This is my first Peter Rollins book and he strikes me as intelligent and educated. That said, I had a hard time listening to this book and it's content. The book strikes me as a pool of philosophy and doesn't really answer questions. I guess if that is the sort of thing you enjoy then great, this book might be enjoyable.

I get that churches and wrong images of god can be idolized, but God (the real one) cannot be idolized.

Not as good as the Shack and a bit boring

Revisado: 02-26-13

Any additional comments?

The book borrowed too many themes from The Shack. I didn't find the story as engrossing and I got bored with it.

More of a summary of testimonials...

Revisado: 07-20-12

Any additional comments?

It's a compilation of Christian testimonials about miracles.

Reader's voice was clear and well read, I just don't particularly care fore the "nice guy sappy voice".

Very interesting and honest reporting

Revisado: 06-19-12

Any additional comments?

I appreciate the reporting of the testimony in a logical way. Not speculating (at least too much). The speculation that was there was fair.

A rehash better explained elsewhere

What was most disappointing about Dinesh D’Souza’s story?

I was expecting something more than a boring discussion. Far too comprehensive with little detail.

Some fact, some speculation...author not clear

Revisado: 06-01-12

Any additional comments?

Heaven has been a far too ignored topic, so I have to appreciate the author taking on the task. That said, he makes a lot of statements of fact, that are really statements of speculation. I am fine with speculation, just state you are doing so (which he doesn't). He also intermingles his own doctrinal views (as fact), which is too bad.
