Title: Not what I was expecting....
Review: I am almost done with this book....but reading it has not been the experience I had thought it would be. I realize that this book is about her travels towards faith and that is a uniquely individual thing, but I am really struck by how self-involved the author is...her brand of Christianity seems solely to be how can God enhance her life and the life of those she loves. It all revolves around how finding God has improved her life...with nothing about what God requires of her. I don't consider myself Christian in the born again sense but I was certainly raised in a Christian manner...by parents who volunteered in a million different ways in order to serve God and those less fortunate. Why doesn't Anne Lamott put down the pen and go work in a soup kitchen? She definitely writes well and I enjoy her style, but she needs to get outside her head!
