    <![CDATA[God never changes, nor do the central truths of Christianity. But our understanding of those truths is in constant flux. Christians will always be exploring and discovering what it means to live in harmony with God and each other. Now in softcover, Velvet Elvis offers original and refreshingly personal perspectives on what Christianity is really about.]]>

    <body><![CDATA[Did I enjoy this book?  Yes and no.  Do I think this book makes a valuable contribution to Christian literature?  Yes and no.<br/><br/>Firstly, there is nothing exorbitantly wrong in this book.  I think there are ideas in it which are over emphasized and exalted maybe a little too much.<br/><br/>...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/8338188">more...</a>]]></body>
