A very good approach and plan for Christian fathers raising their sons

Revisado: 09-30-23

A heartfelt and well thought out presentation of enormously important principles for Christian fathers to grasp. Probably seems overwhelming to most modern day fathers,. However, as a father of three boys and grandfather of five boys I resonate with his heart. I look back with some regret on my shortcomings in this area, but I did have a plan, and saw the benefits of being intentional, even though not to the measure, he puts forth. I’ll be encouraging my sons to read this, pray for a plan of action, and be there to encourage its completion.

A strong case,

which would do better with a rebuttal at each point, but I think it would only make it stronger.

Thorough, authoritative, and enticing

Revisado: 04-27-23

John Hands deconstructs many of the popular “end of the world”prognostications in a relatively quick yet thorough critique. Although, sometimes a bit dry for the non-scientifically inclined, his eventual conclusion of our next evolution into a collective cosmic consciousness is novel, and worthy of consideration.

Revelationary

Revisado: 02-25-23

Dr. Heiser has used his profound knowledge of 2nd temple literature, Semitic languages and his fealty to biblical authority to throw back the curtain on a realm that I certainly had never seen as clearly as I do now!

Great foundation, poor structure.

Revisado: 12-10-22

The underlying faith and truth of this book is marvelous. We have a great God, who loves us, and comes to us to save us. Kathy’s passion for her saving faith is obvious. However, the rabbi’s many paths down the road of numerology of Hebrew words, and sometimes completely ignoring the grammatical and historical context (forcing it into Hebrew, when it was likely spoken in Aramaic) becomes not only erroneous, but intolerable at times. God’s word does indeed have many deep and mysterious meanings, but don’t make up some just to have an appearance of mysticism, erudite education, or insight. Stick to the text.

This was great to hear the voice of the one whose words I’ve read for so long. Hearing the intonation and emphasis was invaluable.

A great listen!

Revisado: 05-28-22

Certainly the deepest book I’ve gone through on evaluating what brought us to where we are now, and how it can be viewed socially, sexually, politically and ethically as a downward curve. Caused me to reread some old philosophers as well as new. Although deep in the history and evaluation, a little shallow in the modern day application but hopefully stimulating more thought and action.

2/3 of the way there.

Revisado: 09-14-19

First, my comments may be jaded because of an underlying concern I had: the download was improperly edited. Three or four different times the recording repeats a previous section and one time it skips forward. I’m unable to tell you exactly how much was skipped over. I’m not sure if this type of error occurs during a normal download on my phone over LTE, but it has never happened previously.
That being the background, I think the 2/3 that this book does a good job in is first-identifying a major problem in people relationships, and second putting forth a framework of dealing with it. Unfortunately, the third part- practical steps of implementation is not included.

Accurate and accessible

Revisado: 06-19-19

A refreshing scholarly approach that does not leave the lay person lost in mumbo-jumbo. As a scientist I appreciated his accuracy and honesty including acknowledging the limit of what he could address in a single book. The appendixes are worth expanding upon in subsequent writings if he chooses to do so but are excellent filler for what he does not address in the chapters. Definitely a great book to get people started in looking at Genesis scientifically without eliminating the process of a supreme God intervening.
