With a dry wit and an eye for hypocrisy, Garrison highlights the misbehaviors of prominent individuals and organizations alike, while espousing a return to the basic principles of the gospels. Abortion, homosexuality, policitcs: all the hot areas are covered and neither side escapes condemnation. Garrison succeeds in raising important questions and forcing others to consider their stances, but the first person tone reduces the impact of the argument somewhat. Humor is effectively embedded within the text, though those who do not follow religious news will not full appreciate the nuances. For readers who are discouraged by churches that focus on politic topics rather than personal faith and universal issues. ( ) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
A master of satire with a theological black belt, Becky Garrison shines a bright light on hypocrisy from both sides of the political spectrum, exposing how both red and blue Christians hold hostage the teachings of Jesus in service to their own partisan gain. What's lacking is a true understanding of Christ's mandate to love all of humanity-including our enemies-which, if honored, would open the door to honest dialogue and understanding that transcends political labels.
