I sent my dad this book as a father's day gift and didn't get around to reading it until coming home for Christmas. While Miller sometimes has a tendency to dance around a point, most of his analogies and anecdotes eventually connect. I enjoyed his insights that "there isn't any better way to help people than to have the boldness to pass them up," and that "complaining is a form of self pity." The thing I think I've figured out about Miller is that he writes books for people who don't like to read books. He also writes book for people who aren't sure how to think or talk about faith. So in that way he provides a valuable service to a vast audience, even if intellectual red meat comes in short supply. On the whole, Miller is a success story and an important voice in the movement to reach out to a fatherless generation.
