    <body><![CDATA[This is not my super-favorite book ever, but I think it could be a worthwhile read if you were in that place where what you really want is a no-holds-barred juicy lecture.  However, I am both a veteran recipient of lectures and a professional giver of lectures, and so I sort of found myself disectin...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/27650658">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I don't agree with Claiborne's &quot;generous orthodoxy&quot; stance, but it's impossible to argue with his simple commitment to living out the Gospel in everyday life. When I finished this book, I wanted to sell all my stuff and hang out with poor people...and that's the point.

    <body><![CDATA[I had a hard time reading this book because of the writing, which left a lot to be desired. I'm sure it was not the author's intent, but at times he comes across as a bit self-righteous. I think his youth is evident in his writing; a lot of passion, idealism, and an appetite for revolution. ;-)<br/>...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/16825514">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Shane Claiborne is doing what he hears God calling him to do, and that is so very admirable. But he doesn't leave lots of room for one to live another way. He's too idealistic and just a touch too pleased with himself. He doesn't come out and say it, but I'm left with the feeling that he judges the ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/20661233">more...</a>]]></body>
