Title: Outside-the-box theology
Review: I first encountered Capon in his engaging recurring articles for the Wittenburg Door magazine, then began reading his books. With many Christian authors, you know pretty much what to expect; you can place them in neatly-defined categories. Not so with Capon; he is a maverick free-thinker which means he's going to challenge the reader with his unique perspective. Here's my theory on Capon: no one reading him will agree with everything he says (there's bound to be something to bother you), and no one reading him will walk away un-blessed. Genesis:the Movie is a fine example of his fresh approach. And who said theology had to be stuffy? The scholarship is all there, but RFC's books read like an engaging discussion in a coffee-shop. They are full of life! I so appreciated his well-reasoned thoughts on this "book of beginnings".
