Title: Afternoon Devotional
Review: The Author of this book is quite open about his ideas. However, these ideas are repeated quite frequently. Often, I would feel as though I had already read a particular section of a chapter, when actually it was something "new". Also, something very apparent from the start is the Author's pessimistic personality. While I am not saying that the book should have been written "happy-go-lucky", I would have felt more comfortable reading the book if the Author had more "love for life". Not sensing an apparent joy in the writing I feel as though the writer may be struggling in his own faith. This of which would make writing a book on faith not necessarily the best idea. Throughout the book there also is a sense of disconnection between the writer and reader. It seems as though the writer is trying to connect with a non-Christian, rather than a Christian working towards a greater faith. The book isn't a difficult read and would perhaps make for a good afternoon devotional.
