Reviews - What do customers think about Weird Christians I Have Met?
 | A nice look at different category of Christians Aug 23, 2004 |
We've all known Christians like these, whether you are a church-goer or not. Philip Baker outlines 10 kinds of Christians, their positive points and their negative aspects. He gives each trait a name, like "Theological Theo" or "End Time Ed" and describes how each help the church and how they hinder it.
Basically, this book tries to balance the extremes with biblical truth. The nice thing about the book is that MOST traits he doesn't out and out dismiss. He aknowledges the need for theology (Theological Theo), emotion (Penticostal Pamela), study of spirital warfare (Demonic Dave), among others, but says that extremism can be more harmful than benificial.
And he doesn't go out trying to please everyone. When a trait is bad, he calls it a spade. Baker couldn't find much good to say about putting on a fake front (Plastic Pete), or judging people constantly (Judgemental Jill). Instead of just pointing fingers he offers good solutions.
The book is fairly short (shy of 140 pages) so don't expect an in-depth study. However it says a lot of things which should have been said before now. | | | Write your own review about Weird Christians I Have Met
