I chose to read this book
because of the quirky title that caught my attention. While the title is a bit gimmicky, I am glad
that the rest of the book isn’t. This is
the story of a journey. Tyler Blanski –
a singer/songwriter and author sets out to rediscover Christianity in the
modern world. He shows us the beauty of
scriptures and spiritual thinking.
Evident is the author’s passion for Christ and a humorous spirit. He chalks this book full of life application
for living in this world while falling in love with Jesus. Tyler opens our eyes to God in all of his
amazing ways. This book was a warm welcome to my reading list. It was an invitation – to reclaim the joy of
ancient ways. I loved that it was
written without a lot of focus on criticism of what’s wrong with other ways of
seeking. The author chose to instead
focus on this journey. He engages in
conversations and adds in quotes from theologians which serve to encourage the
reader to look further. In looking I
found a renewed sense of wonder. I
encourage you to give this book a try.
You may not agree with everything the author says, but this book will
encourage you to think. It might even
encourage you to question what might be missing from your life. Is it the best book I've read - no. Do I even agree with everything the author says - no. However, the spirit of the book is a faith adventure. Faith that isn't challenged, examined and explored often ends up stale. Read it for inspiration. You may find yourself on a journey as well.
