Recommended for: all Christians
Read from March 11 to 22, 2011

This was a wonderful read and not too cerebral. Keller didn't borrow as heavily from other authors (*coughCSLewiscough*)as he did in Reason for God. He gave great info for pushing farther with our justice and generosity, and realizing that people who have lived their entire lives in certain ways ren't going to just 'get it' and start living in a more sustainable way immediately. He gave great examples, and encourages giving people multiple chances, while rethinking how we live all aspects of our lives (including work). He is careful to stay away from politics, pointing out the flaws on the right and left, and he asks that we pay more attention to unjust practices (like banks refusing loans in certain parts of town, etc).
