Title: When you can't see the forest for the trees . . . .
Product review: An expression I remember from my adolescense to express frustration and confusion was 'he can't see the forest for the trees'. I think that defines what I've experienced in mainline, traditional churches for years.You sense that something is missing, but you just don't know what it is. Somehow, church and worship don't feel right, but you can't put your finger on it, and sooner or later you just stop going.Well this book was a lot like a book I read back in the 60s by Alvin Toffler called Future Shock. He had the ability to bring current events into a focus that allowed you to see the forest as well as the trees.Reading this book was just like that - one of those 'AHA!, THAT'S IT!' moments. Murrow hits the nail square on the head. I'm not sure (and neither is he for that matter) that all the answers are presented. But for perhaps the first time, the problem is out in the open and open for discussion.Get it - read it - THINK! THINK! THINK!
