So glad I stuck with it! Better all the time.

And parts of it are really funny!

Enjoying it a great deal now.

Getting better.

Maybe I’m cynical, I’m not loving this. It still seems very much like salvation through works. If you want to be saved, you must do X and Y and Z and not mess up. You’ll be a hero! I’m sure Christ will end up fitting into this narrative somehow. But I think it would be nicer if CHRIST were the hero.

Oh, no! I started this yesterday and am hard-pressed to remember a time when I was more disappointed in a book. I had been looking forward to this one for a long time, too!
