Review # 1 was written on 2009-12-03 00:00:00 Darnell Haynes "Stories are more important than facts" - this is painfully true, in politics, individuals, families, communities... I've heard this before but to hear it in the language of theology was a need I didn't realize I had until I came across this book. Taylor is an engaging, entertaining, and deeply thoughtful writer. The community of ideas is broad and deep here: Twain, Wiesel, Hurston, Momaday, Augustine, Dostoevsky, Welty, King, Flannery O'Connor, Tolkien... and of course, scripture. The author leans conservative but this only barely comes through the text; he was an editor at Books and Culture before it folded. A book I want to read again. A book important for our times, for ethics, for self-knowledge, for preaching... not sure why this one isn't getting more press.

Review # 2 was written on 2008-11-03 00:00:00 Idolo Valeri This is a very powerful book. I have highlighted and made notes all through the book. So much truth, wisdom and inspiration in this one. I'll return to it again and again.
